First, the meaning of each term in the present specification will be described. "Prize ball" includes not only a prize in which a prize ball is paid out, but also a passage to a "through chucker" in which a prize ball is not paid out. The "identification information" may be in any form as long as the type of information can be identified through the five senses (visual, auditory, tactile, etc.), but preferably visual information such as numbers, letters, and patterns. Those having a shape such as, etc. can be mentioned. Further, in the present specification, the "identification information" may be referred to as a main game symbol / special symbol (special symbol) or a decorative symbol (designation), but the "special symbol (special symbol)" is a main control board. The identification information is displayed and controlled on the side, and the "decorative pattern (design)" is the identification information as an effect displayed on the sub-control board side. "Displayable identification information" is not limited to the display method, and includes, for example, light emission of a light emitting member (for example, liquid crystal, LED, 7-segment display) (including not only the presence or absence of light emission but also the difference in color) and physics. Display (for example, the symbol drawn on the reel band is stopped and displayed at a predetermined position) and the like. "Direction" refers to the display content that enhances the enjoyment of the game, for example, moving images such as animations and live-action images, still images such as pictures, photographs, characters, etc., including identification information fluctuation / stop, notice, etc. Combinations can be mentioned. The "open state, open state" and "closed state, closed state" are, for example, in the configuration of a general large winning opening (so-called attacker), the open state = easy winning state, and the closed state = non-winning state. It will be in an easy state. Further, for example, a state of protruding from the game board (player side) (hereinafter, may be referred to as an advanced state) and a state of being retracted into the game board (the side opposite to the player side) (hereinafter, referred to as an evacuation state). In a configuration that can take (there is) (so-called tongue-type attacker), the advance state = the winning easy state, and the evacuation state = the winning non-easy state. A "random number" is a random number used in a lottery (a lottery by a computer) for determining some game content in a pachinko game machine, and includes a pseudo-random number in addition to a random number in a narrow sense (for example, a hard random number). Random numbers, soft random numbers as pseudo-random numbers). For example, the so-called "basic random number" that affects the result of the game, specifically, the "winning random number (random number for winning / failing lottery)" related to the transition of the special game, and the variation mode (or variation time) of the identification symbol are determined. "Random number for determining variable mode", "Random number for determining stop symbol", "Random number for determining winning symbol" for determining whether to shift to a specific game (for example, probability variable game) after a special game, etc. be able to. It is not necessary to use all of these random numbers when determining the content of the variation mode, the content of the definite identification information, and the like, and at least one random number that is the same as or different from each other may be used. Further, in the present specification, the number of random numbers may be displayed in the form of the number of random numbers or a plurality of random numbers, but once the entry port (for example, the start entry port) that triggers the acquisition of random numbers. The random number obtained by entering the ball is called one (that is, in the above example, a bundle of random numbers such as winning random number + fluctuation mode determination random number + symbol determination random number ... is called one random number). .. Further, for example, a kind of random number (for example, a winning random number) may also serve as another kind of random number (for example, a symbol determination random number). In the case of a pachinko gaming machine, the "game state" is, for example, a special game state in which the large winning opening can be opened, and a non-probability variable game state in which the lottery probability of transition to the special game state is a predetermined value. Transition to special game state Probability fluctuation game state with high lottery probability, auxiliary game state with assistance for winning a prize at the start port that triggers the transition to special game (so-called normal symbol time saving state, for example, variable to the start port) When the member is attached, the opening period of the variable member is long, the probability of winning the opening of the variable member is high, the time for notifying the result of the opening lottery of the variable member is short), etc. is there.

<Medal Selector DS>
Next, the medal selector DS will be described in detail with reference to FIG. FIG. 3 is a perspective view showing a path (selector) of a game medal inserted into the medal insertion slot D170 inside the rotating drum type gaming machine P. The medal selector DS is provided with an insertion reception sensor D10s that serves as a passage for game medals inserted from the medal insertion port D170 near the door substrate D, and below the insertion reception sensor D10s, a game medal discharge port D240. A coin shooter D90 or the like is provided to guide the driver. The insertion reception sensor D10s has a function of selecting game medals inserted from the medal insertion slot D170 mainly based on the dimensions and accepting only game medals conforming to the standard dimensions, and it is determined that the insertion reception sensor D10s does not conform to this function. The medal (or other foreign matter) is configured to be refunded to the outlet D240 by the blocker D100. If a game medal is inserted before the player operates the start lever D50 (when the insertion of the game medal is valid), the game medals are selected by the insertion reception sensor D10s, and only those that satisfy the standard are satisfied. The medals that have been inserted into the hopper H40 and do not meet the standards are returned to the discharge port D240 through the coin shooter D90. On the other hand, when a game medal is inserted after the start lever D50 is operated (when the insertion of the game medal is not valid), the inserted game medal is inserted regardless of whether or not the standard is satisfied. Is returned to the discharge port D240 through the coin shooter D90. Further, inside the insertion reception sensor D10s (in the back of the flow path), a sensor related to medal insertion, which will be described in detail later, is provided, and when a game medal that satisfies the dimensional standard and is accepted passes, the first insertion sensor D20s And, it is detected by the second input sensor D30s, and the signal is supplied to the main control board M which will be described later.

The insertion reception sensor D10s is a mechanical double sensor, and when the game medal passes, it is turned on by pressing the two protruding mechanisms, and the game medal can normally pass through the passage. .. Further, with such a configuration, when a foreign substance that is not a game medal (a foreign substance that does not satisfy the standard and has a diameter smaller than that of the game medal, for example) is inserted, two protruding mechanisms are pressed. Not done. Since the medal cannot maintain the standing state, such a medal cannot pass through the passage (the medal collapses), and is refunded to the discharge port D240 through the coin shooter D90 as described above. In addition, the input reception sensor D10s is configured so that it can determine an error even when the ON time is continuous for a predetermined time or longer (as a result, the blocker D100 can be turned off). ..

When the game medal normally passes through the blocker D100, it passes through the first throwing sensor D20s and the second throwing sensor D30s immediately after passing. This throw-in sensor (first throw-in sensor D20s and second throw-in sensor D30s) is composed of two sensors (they are arranged adjacent to each other at intervals smaller than the standard diameter of the game medal), and each sensor is turned on. -Various errors can be detected by monitoring the off status (the transition order of the on / off combination of the first input sensor D20s and the second input sensor D30s, etc.) and the on / off time. It is configured in.

<Medal payout device HP>
Next, the medal payout device HP will be described in detail with reference to the front view and the top view of the medal payout device HP of FIG. The medal payout device HP is operated by the settlement button in the presence of credits (game medals electronically stored inside the game machine) or bet medals (medals inserted to start the game). It will be activated when the game medal is paid out by winning or winning. When operating, first, the hopper motor H80 is driven to rotate the disc H50 around the disc rotation shaft H50a. Due to the rotation, the game medals in the medal payout device HP displace the release urging means H70 and flow down from the game medal outlet H60 toward the discharge port D240. The payout sensor (first payout sensor H10s and second payout sensor H20s) is composed of two sensors, and the on / off status of each sensor (first payout sensor H10s and second payout sensor H20s on / off). Various errors can be detected by monitoring the transition order of the off combination, etc.) and the on / off time. More specifically, for example, when the game medal outlet H60 is normally passed, the first payout sensor H10s = off and the second payout sensor H20s = off due to the displacement of the release urging means H70. 1 payout sensor H10s = off, second payout sensor H20s = off → first payout sensor H10s = on, second payout sensor H20s = off → first payout sensor H10s = on, second payout sensor H20s = on → first payout Since the sensor state transition is sensor H10s = off, second payout sensor H20s = on → first payout sensor H10s = off, second payout sensor H20s = off, if a movement contrary to this sensor state transition is detected, , It can be exemplified that it is configured to be an error.

First, the configuration and function of the light emitting member 1000 will be described.

<Light emitting member 1000>
FIG. 5A is a front view showing the appearance of the light emitting member 1000. Further, FIG. 5B is a schematic view showing a light emitting region 100 of a plurality of light emitting regions 100 constituting the light emitting member 1000.

The light emitting member 1000 has a thin plate-like (sheet-like, film-like) shape, and has a substantially rectangular shape when viewed from the front. The thickness of the light emitting member 1000 is, for example, approximately 0.5 mm. The lengths of the light emitting member 1000 in the horizontal direction and the vertical direction can be appropriately determined according to the mode in which the light emitting member 1000 is used. The light emitting member 1000 is made of a transparent material whose rear can be visually recognized over substantially the entire light emitting member 1000 including the light emitting region 100 described later.

The light emitting member 1000 can be used by being attached to an object such as a glass plate or an acrylic plate. Further, as will be described later, each member constituting the light emitting member 1000 has flexibility (flexibility), and the light emitting member 1000 also has flexibility (flexibility), and is an object to be attached. It can be curved or bent according to the shape. For example, the light emitting member 1000 can be deformed according to the outer shape and contour of the object, and can be attached in close contact with the surface of the object. In this case, the lengths of the light emitting member 1000 in the horizontal direction and the vertical direction can be determined according to the size of the object. Specific usage examples will be described later.

Further, the shape of the light emitting member 1000 itself can be appropriately determined not only in a substantially rectangular shape but also in accordance with the outer shape and contour of the object. Furthermore, the light emitting member 1000 can be cut and used according to the outer shape and contour of the object.

The light emitting member 1000 has a plurality of light emitting regions 100. As shown in FIG. 5A, the light emitting region 100 is arranged along the horizontal direction and the vertical direction of the light emitting member 1000. That is, the plurality of light emitting regions 100 are arranged in a matrix or a grid pattern on the light emitting member 1000. One light emitting area 100 constitutes one pixel. In addition to such an arrangement, the light emitting region 100 can be arranged in a direction different from the horizontal direction and the vertical direction, for example, along an oblique direction or along a predetermined curve. .. It suffices if the desired information (image) can be displayed on the light emitting member 1000 by emitting light from the plurality of light emitting regions 100. The quality of the image displayed on the light emitting member 1000 is determined by the number of pixels (resolution) according to the interval between adjacent light emitting regions 100, and is mainly displayed as an image similar to a so-called dot image. Further, the light emitting member 1000 can be used as a light source by emitting light from a plurality of light emitting regions 100.

As shown in FIG. 5B, each of the light emitting regions 100 includes three light emitting elements, that is, a first light emitting element 1010, a second light emitting element 1020, and a third light emitting element 1030. For example, the light emitting element can be a light emitting diode element (LED) or the like. The light emitting element is not a chip used as a so-called mounting component, but a member that emits light. By doing so, it is possible to make it difficult to visually recognize the light emitting element arranged in the light emitting member 1000. One light emitting region 100 is formed by a set of the first light emitting element 1010, the second light emitting element 1020, and the third light emitting element 1030, and one pixel is formed.

For example, the first light emitting element 1010, the second light emitting element 1020, and the third light emitting element 1030 can be arranged linearly.

By making the first light emitting element 1010 a red LED element, the second light emitting element 1020 a green LED element, and the third light emitting element 1030 a blue LED element, the light emitting region 100 becomes a desired light emitting color. Therefore, the light emitting region 100 can be made to emit light in multiple colors over the entire light emitting member 1000, and various desired information such as characters, figures, symbols, and patterns can be emitted in multiple colors. It can be displayed on the member 1000. Details of the configurations of the first light emitting element 1010, the second light emitting element 1020, and the third light emitting element 1030 will be described later.

In the example shown in FIG. 5A, a plurality of light emitting regions 100 are uniformly formed on the entire light emitting member 1000, but may be formed only on a part of the light emitting member 1000. For example, a plurality of light emitting regions 100 can be formed only in the peripheral region of the light emitting member 1000, only in the four corner regions of the light emitting member 1000, or only in the central region of the light emitting member 1000. Further, a plurality of light emitting regions 100 may be formed so as to draw a predetermined figure in the plane on which the light emitting member 1000 extends. Further, the plurality of light emitting regions 100 may be formed so that the arrangement densities are different. For example, the light emitting regions 100 may be formed so as to be densely arranged in a certain region and sparsely arranged in the remaining region.

Due to this deformation, the contact state between the first electrodes 1012, 1022 and 1032 and the second electrodes 1014, 1024 and 1034 can be further improved, and the contact resistance can be further reduced.

<Arrangement of the first light emitting element 1010, the second light emitting element 1020, and the third light emitting element 1030>
A plurality of first light emitting elements 1010 are juxtaposed in the first intermediate layer 1200. When a plurality of first light emitting elements 1010 are arranged so that adjacent first light emitting elements 1010 are excessively close to each other in the first intermediate layer 1200, the first support 1100 and the second support are supported. It is not possible to secure an interval at which the body 2100 can be sufficiently deformed, and the urging force generated by the elastic deformation of the first support 1100 and the second support 2100 becomes small. Therefore, the first conductive layer 1120 cannot be sufficiently pressed against the first electrode 1012, or the second conductive layer 2120 cannot be sufficiently pressed against the second electrode 1014, and the first conductivity cannot be sufficiently pressed. The electrical contact state between the layer 1120 and the first electrode 1012 and the electrical contact state between the second conductive layer 2120 and the second electrode 1014 have to be lowered. In addition, it may be difficult to stably hold the first light emitting element 1010.

Similarly, a plurality of second light emitting elements 1020 and a third light emitting element 1030 are juxtaposed in the second intermediate layer 1300. When a plurality of second light emitting elements 1020 and a third light emitting element 1030 are arranged so that the second light emitting element 1020 and the third light emitting element 1030 adjacent to each other in the second intermediate layer 1300 are excessively close to each other. The second support 2100 and the third support 3100 cannot be sufficiently deformed, and the urging force generated by the elastic deformation of the second support 2100 and the third support 3100 cannot be secured. Becomes smaller.

Therefore, the electrical contact state between the third conductive layer 2130 and the first electrode 1022 of the second light emitting element 1020, and the second electrode 1024 of the fourth conductive layer 3120 and the second light emitting element 1020. Electrical contact with the third conductive layer 2130 and the first electrode 1032 of the third light emitting element 1030, and electrical contact between the fourth conductive layer 3120 and the third light emitting element 1030. The electrical contact state with the second electrode 1034 of the above is forced to decrease. Further, it may be difficult to stably hold the second light emitting element 1020 and the third light emitting element 1030.

On the other hand, when the first light emitting element 1010, the second light emitting element 1020, and the third light emitting element 1030 are arranged close to each other for both the first intermediate layer 1200 and the second intermediate layer 1300, The first light emitting element 1010 presses the second light emitting element 1020 and the third light emitting element 1030, and the second light emitting element 1020 and the third light emitting element 1030 press the first light emitting element 1010. It is possible to improve the electrical contact state by pressing each other.

That is, when the first light emitting element 1010 projects toward the second intermediate layer 1300, the second support 2100 elastically deforms toward the second intermediate layer 1300. Due to the elastic deformation of the second support 2100, the third conductive layer 2130 is pressed against the first electrode 1022 of the second light emitting element 1020, and the third conductive layer 2130 is the third light emitting element 1030. It is pressed by the electrode 1032 of 1. As a result, the contact state between the third conductive layer 2130 and the first electrode 1022 of the second light emitting element 1020 and the contact between the third conductive layer 2130 and the first electrode 1032 of the third light emitting element 1030 The condition can be improved.

On the contrary, when the second light emitting element 1020 and the third light emitting element 1030 project toward the first intermediate layer 1200, the second support 2100 is elastically deformed toward the first intermediate layer 1200. To do. Due to the elastic deformation of the second support 2100, the second conductive layer 2120 is pressed against the second electrode 1014 of the first light emitting element 1010. Thereby, the contact state between the second conductive layer 2120 and the second electrode 1014 of the first light emitting element 1010 can be improved.

Specifically, for both the first intermediate layer 1200 and the second intermediate layer 1300, the adjacent first light emitting element 1010, the second light emitting element 1020, and the third light emitting element 1030 are viewed from the front. By arranging them so as to be located at the vertices of an equilateral triangle, a two-dimensional close-packed structure can be formed, and the electricity of the first light emitting element 1010, the second light emitting element 1020, and the third light emitting element 1030 can be formed. Contact state can be improved with each other.

When the first light emitting element 1010, the second light emitting element 1020, and the third light emitting element 1030 are brought too close to each other, the first support 1100, the second support 2100, and the third support are supported. In some cases, the body 3100 cannot be sufficiently elastically deformed. Therefore, it is preferable that the first light emitting element 1010, the second light emitting element 1020, and the third light emitting element 1030 are appropriately separated from each other. For example, the first light emitting element 1010, the second light emitting element 1020, and the third light emitting element are separated by the thickness of the first support 1100, the second support 2100, and the third support 3100. It is preferable to arrange 1030.

In this way, for both the first intermediate layer 1200 and the second intermediate layer 1300, the first light emitting element 1010, the second light emitting element 1020, and the third light emitting element 1030 are staggered at equal intervals. By arranging them in this way, the first light emitting element 1010, the second light emitting element 1020, and the third light emitting element 1030 can be arranged close to each other. By arranging the first light emitting element 1010, the second light emitting element 1020, and the third light emitting element 1030 close to each other and emitting light from each of them, the resolution of the light emitting member 1000 is increased and desired information is displayed in detail. can do.

If the contact state and the stability of holding can be ensured, not only the first light emitting element 1010, the second light emitting element 1020, and a part of the third light emitting element 1030 are overlapped so as to be arranged so as to be staggered. It may be placed in.

That is, the circuits of the first light emitting element 1010, the second light emitting element 1020, and the third light emitting element 1030 are formed by forming different circuit patterns between the first conductive layer 1120 and the third conductive layer 2130. Patterns can be sorted and formed. By forming such a circuit pattern, it is possible to simplify the power feeding structure to the first light emitting element 1010, the second light emitting element 1020, and the third light emitting element 1030.

The first light emitting element 1010 can be a red LED element, the second light emitting element 1020 can be a green LED element, and the third light emitting element 1030 can be a blue LED element. By adjusting the light emission of the first light emitting element 1010, the second light emitting element 1020, and the third light emitting element 1030, various information such as character information and figures can be displayed in multiple colors on the light emitting member 1000. ..

The conductive layer 2120 and the fourth conductive layer 3120 can also form a similar circuit pattern. When the second electrodes 1014 of the plurality of first light emitting elements 1010 may be electrically connected to the second conductive layer 2120 in common, the second electrode 1014 covers the entire surface of the second substrate 2110. The conductive layer 2120 can be formed. Similarly, the second electrode 1024 of the plurality of second light emitting elements 1020 and the second electrode 1034 of the plurality of third light emitting elements 1030 may be electrically connected to the fourth conductive layer 3120 in common.

<Light emission of the first light emitting element 1010, the second light emitting element 1020, and the third light emitting element 1030>
When a voltage is applied between the first electrode 1012 and the second electrode 1014 of the first light emitting element 1010, the first light emitting element 1010 emits light. The first support 1100 has translucency, and the light emitted from the first light emitting element 1010 passes through the first support 1100. Therefore, the light emitted from the first light emitting element 1010 can be visually recognized from the outside on the side of the first support 1100.

Further, since the second support 2100, the third support 3100, and the second intermediate layer 1300 also have translucency, the light emitted from the first light emitting element 1010 is the second support 2100. It penetrates the second intermediate layer 1300 and the third support 3100. Therefore, the light emitted from the first light emitting element 1010 can be visually recognized from the outside on the third support 3100 side.

As described above, the light emitted from the first light emitting element 1010 can be visually recognized from both the outside of the first support 1100 side and the outside of the third support 3100 side.

Similarly, when a voltage is applied between the first electrode 1022 and the second electrode 1024 of the second light emitting element 1020, the second light emitting element 1020 emits light. The first support 1100, the second support 2100, and the first intermediate layer 1200 have translucency, and the light emitted from the second light emitting element 1020 is the second support 2100, the first. Through the intermediate layer 1200 and the first support 1100. Therefore, the light emitted from the second light emitting element 1020 can be visually recognized from the outside on the side of the first support 1100.

Further, since the third support 3100 also has translucency, the light emitted from the second light emitting element 1020 passes through the third support 3100.

The light emitted from the third light emitting element 1030 can also be visually recognized from the outside on the first support 1100 side and the outside on the third support 3100 side, similarly to the second light emitting element 1020. it can.

In order for the light emitted from the first light emitting element 1010 to reach the third support 3100, it is necessary to pass through the second intermediate layer 1300. Further, in order for the light emitted from the second light emitting element 1020 and the third light emitting element 1030 to reach the first support 1100, it is necessary to pass through the first intermediate layer 1200. Therefore, it is supplied to each of the first light emitting element 1010, the second light emitting element 1020, and the third light emitting element 1030 according to the material and thickness of the first intermediate layer 1200 and the second intermediate layer 1300. The current to be generated can be appropriately adjusted so that the intensities of the light emitted from the first light emitting element 1010, the second light emitting element 1020, and the third light emitting element 1030 are uniform.

In the above-described example, the light emitted from the first light emitting element 1010, the second light emitting element 1020, and the third light emitting element 1030 is also a third support from the outside on the first support 1100 side. Although the case where the light can be visually recognized from the outside of the 3100 side is shown, the light may be emitted only from the first support 1100 side or only the third support 3100 side. The materials constituting the first light emitting element 1010, the second light emitting element 1020 and the third light emitting element 1030, the first conductive layer 1120, the second conductive layer 2120, the third conductive layer 2130 and the fourth The direction of light emission can be controlled by appropriately using a material or the like constituting the conductive layer 3120.

When the first light emitting element 1010, the second light emitting element 1020, and the third light emitting element 1030 themselves have translucency, the first electrodes 1012, 1022 and 1032, and the second electrodes 1014, By making 1024 and 1034 smaller, the emitted light is less likely to be blocked, and the amount of light emitted to the outside of the light emitting member 1000 can be increased.

The light emitting member 1000 functions as a light source capable of emitting multicolored light by emitting light by using the first light emitting element 1010, the second light emitting element 1020, and the third light emitting element 1030 having different light emitting colors. .. Further, the light emitting member 1000 functions as a display device capable of visually displaying various patterns as well as characters, figures, symbols, images of characters, etc. by controlling each display mode of the plurality of light emitting regions 100. ..

As described above, the circuit pattern of the first light emitting element 1010 is formed on the first conductive layer 1120, and the circuit pattern of the second light emitting element 1020 and the third light emitting element 1020 are formed on the third conductive layer 2130. The circuit pattern of the light emitting element 1030 is formed. Each of these circuit patterns can form a plurality of sets by grouping some light emitting regions 100 and light emitting elements. For example, only the light emitting region 100 corresponding to the first set of circuit patterns can be made to emit light, or only the light emitting element corresponding to the second set of circuit patterns can be made to emit light. Further, only the light emitting region 100 corresponding to the third set of circuit patterns can be turned off. By forming a plurality of sets in this way, when power is supplied to the circuit pattern of one set of the plurality of sets, the light emitting regions 100 connected to the circuit pattern of the one set are the same at the same time. Depending on the combination of the light emitting region 100 and the light emitting elements, such as light emission for each light emitting element, light emission for each of a plurality of light emitting element groups, and light emission for all the light emitting regions 100.

Specifically, the transparency effect display device TSG includes a light emitting member 1000, a drive circuit, and a connection cable.

<Circuit pattern 1050 for frame ground>
Further, as shown in FIG. 5A, a frame ground circuit pattern 1050 is formed along the outer circumference of the light emitting member 1000. The frame ground circuit pattern 1050 has a substantially rectangular shape. The frame ground circuit pattern 1050 has an end 1055, which is housed in a connector 1057. By attaching a cable (not shown) to the connector 1057, the end 1055 and the cable can be electrically connected, and the frame ground circuit pattern 1050 is provided via the end 1055, the connector 1057, and the cable. Connected to the frame ground line. By grounding the frame ground line, the frame ground circuit pattern 1050 can be grounded. The frame ground circuit pattern 1050 is a circuit through which a current can flow.

The frame ground is an electrical connection for determining the reference potential of the housing of the game machine. By grounding the frame ground, a reference potential can be set, and even if an electric leakage should occur, electric shock can be prevented by passing a current through the ground. On the other hand, the game machine ground (signal ground) is an electrical connection for determining a common reference potential for circuits of various boards such as the main control board M and the sub control board S. The reference potential can be stabilized by grounding the game machine ground. Further, when the game machine ground is grounded, the potential of the frame ground and the potential of the game machine ground can be made the same potential to reduce noise. Here, the "board" refers to a board on which a circuit element is incorporated or printed wiring is applied to make it into an integrated circuit or the like. For example, there are printed circuit boards, silicon single crystal plates, and the like.

The frame ground circuit pattern 1050 is formed by forming a thin film made of a transparent conductive material described later by, for example, a sputtering method or an electron beam vapor deposition method, and patterning the obtained thin film by laser processing, etching processing, or the like. Can be done.

The frame ground circuit pattern 1050 is formed on one of the first conductive layer 1120, the second conductive layer 2120, the third conductive layer 2130, and the fourth conductive layer 3120. The frame ground circuit pattern 1050 is formed on any of the conductive layers while maintaining an insulation state with the circuit pattern for driving the first light emitting element 1010, the second light emitting element 1020, and the third light emitting element 1030. To. Further, only when the frame ground circuit pattern 1050 is formed on any single conductive layer of the first conductive layer 1120, the second conductive layer 2120, the third conductive layer 2130, and the fourth conductive layer 3120. Instead, the frame ground circuit pattern 1050 can be formed over some of these plurality of conductive layers. It may be formed over two conductive layers, over three conductive layers, or over all four conductive layers. Even when the frame ground circuit pattern 1050 is formed over a plurality of conductive layers, in the light emitting member 1000, the first light emitting element 1010, the second light emitting element 1020, and the third light emitting element 1030 The circuit pattern for driving the above is not electrically connected and is formed while maintaining an insulated state. For example, in order to avoid interference with the circuit patterns for driving the first light emitting element 1010, the second light emitting element 1020, and the third light emitting element 1030, the frame ground circuit pattern 1050 spans a plurality of conductive layers. Can be formed.

Further, regardless of whether the frame ground circuit pattern 1050 is formed on a single conductive layer or a plurality of conductive layers, the frame ground circuit pattern 1050 can be formed so as not to loop. desirable.

When the frame ground circuit pattern 1050 is not formed, a strong electromagnetic wave is emitted near the light emitting member 1000, and when a high voltage signal is applied to the light emitting member 1000, the main control board M or the like via the light emitting member 1000. A high voltage signal may be supplied to the sub-control board S or the like, which may affect the main control board M or the sub-control board S or the like. However, as described above, when the frame ground circuit pattern 1050 is formed on the light emitting member 1000 and electrically connected to the frame ground line (not shown), an electromagnetic wave is emitted near the light emitting member 1000. Even if there is, the high voltage signal flows to the frame ground line via the frame ground circuit pattern 1050. If the frame ground line is grounded to the outside of the housing, the high voltage signal will flow to the ground, and if the frame ground line is not grounded to the outside of the housing, the high voltage signal will be attenuated by the noise suppression protector. Will be done. In this way, even when an electromagnetic wave is emitted near the light emitting member 1000, it is possible to prevent the inflow to the main control board M, the sub control board S, and the like, and the content of the game of the main control board M and the sub It is possible to prevent the control board S from affecting the content of the effect.

Further, the frame ground circuit pattern 1050 is formed electrically independently of the circuit pattern for driving the first light emitting element 1010, the second light emitting element 1020, and the third light emitting element 1030. Even when a current flows through the frame ground circuit pattern 1050, the influence is given to the circuit pattern for driving the first light emitting element 1010, the second light emitting element 1020, and the third light emitting element 1030. There is no such thing.

In addition to the above embodiment, it is also possible to form the frame ground circuit pattern 1050 on a fifth conductive layer (not shown) different from the first to fourth conductive layers. In this case, the game From the viewpoint of suppressing noise from the front of the machine, it is desirable that the conductive layer closest to the player among the first to fifth conductive layers be the forming layer of the frame ground circuit pattern 1050, and the pattern is also used. It can also be formed over substantially the entire surface of the light emitting member 1000. Further, for example, from the viewpoint of suppressing the mixing of noise generated when the medal passes through the medal flow path for guiding the medal inserted from the medal insertion port to the hopper, the conductive layer closest to the flow path. It is desirable that (generally, the conductive layer farthest from the player is applicable) be the forming layer of the frame ground circuit pattern 1050. Further, when the noise immunity is prioritized over the transparency (transparency) of the transparency effect display device TSG (light emitting member 1000), two additional layers for forming the frame ground circuit pattern 1050 are provided, and the first to first layers are provided. It can be arranged on both sides so as to sandwich the fourth layer, and in that case, the newly provided two layers can be electrically connected. Further, as in the present embodiment, the frame ground circuit pattern 1050 is formed on the outer periphery of any (or a plurality of layers) of the first to fourth layers, and then on both sides (the newly provided two-layer surface). It is also possible to provide a layer for forming the circuit pattern 1050 for the frame ground and electrically connect them. In this case, the entire surface of the pattern connected to the light emitting element is covered with the frame ground layer (frame). It can be covered with a layer of the ground circuit pattern 1050), and noise mixing from the light emitting member 1000 can be further suppressed.

Next, the figure case FC provided on the right side of the front door DU in front view will be described. In this embodiment, the figure case unit FCU is composed of the figure case FC and the movable body accessory YK. A transparent effect display device TSG (light emitting member 1000) is provided on the inner surface of the figure case FC. Specifically, the figure case FC is made of a synthetic resin material such as translucent polycarbonate, includes a case member having a front FCF and a substantially semicircular bottom FCB, and is attached to the front door DU. A movable body accessory YK (figure) is provided in the accommodation space formed between the mounting surface of the figure case FC of the middle panel D110 and the figure case FC, and the transparency effect display device TSG is provided on the inner surface of the front FCF. A light emitting member 1000 is attached.

More specifically, as shown in FIG. 9, the light emitting member 1000 of the transmissive effect display device TSG is brought into close contact with the front FCF of the case member along the inner surface thereof to display the transmissive effect display. The device TSG is attached. Therefore, the player can visually recognize the figure provided inside the figure case FC through the figure case FC and the light emitting member 1000 of the transparency effect display device TSG.

The frame ground circuit pattern 1050 is positioned on the light emitting member 1000 of the transmissive effect display device TSG attached to the front FCF of the case member of the figure case FC so as to follow the outer shape of the front FCF. In the case of this example, the frame ground circuit pattern 1050 has a frame ground circuit pattern 1050A and a frame ground circuit pattern 1050B. The frame ground circuit pattern 1050A and the frame ground circuit pattern 1050B are electrically connected to form the frame ground circuit pattern 1050.

As described above, in this embodiment, since the circuit pattern 1050 for the frame ground is configured, even when a strong electromagnetic wave is emitted near the figure case FC, the transparency effect attached to the figure case FC is produced. The frame ground circuit pattern 1050 of the light emitting member 1000 of the display device TSG allows a high voltage signal to flow to the frame ground line via the frame ground circuit pattern 1050, and is arranged at a position close to the player. It is possible to suitably suppress the mixing of noise from a large number of figure case FCs.

Next, FIG. 10 is a list of basic specifications of the rotating cylinder type game machine P in the present embodiment. The rotating drum type game machine P according to the present embodiment has a specified number (maximum number of game medals that can be bet in one game) of 3, and the number of frames of the left reel M51, the middle reel M52, and the right reel M53 is 20. The effective line for the frame and winning judgment is one line of "left reel M51 lower row, middle reel M52 middle row, right reel M53 upper row", the maximum payout number is 7, and the minimum payout number is 1 (winning combination and payout number). The association with is described later), and the bonus symbol is "sheep / sheep / sheep" (finished with a payout of more than 450 sheets) and is a type 1 BB (so-called type 1 special accessory continuous operation device). It has become. In addition, the priority winning order (pull-in priority order) is "replaying role-> small role (bell, watermelon, etc.)-> bonus". For example, when the replaying role and the bonus are established at the same time, , The symbol combination that becomes the re-game role is stopped and displayed, and the bonus cannot be won. In addition, when the bell and watermelon are established, if the stop button is pressed at the position where both can be pulled in (the position within 4 frames to the winning stop position), priority is given to the small winning combination with a large number of payouts. It is configured to retract. The configuration shown in the figure is just an example, and the number of frames of each reel is changed (for example, changed to 21 frames), and the configuration of effective lines is changed (for example, 5 horizontal lines and 2 diagonal lines). There is no problem even if you change to a line). In addition, as a pull-in control when a push order small winning combination that gives different benefits to the player depending on the pushing order is won, a small winning combination with a large number of payouts is performed when the push order is operated in a predetermined correct push order. Is controlled to be pulled in with priority (number of sheets priority control), and if the operation is performed in the wrong answer pressing order different from the correct answer pressing order, the stop display is possible (at a position within 4 frames from the stop operation). Control (number priority control) is performed to increase the possibility of winning among the (arranged) symbols (the most likely to win among the combinations of multiple symbols that can be won).

Next, FIG. 11 is a list of reel arrangements of the rotating cylinder type game machine P in the present embodiment. As shown in the figure, the number of frames of the left reel M51, the middle reel M52, and the right reel M53 are all 20 frames (Nos. 0 to 19), and the symbols are "Seven", "Sheep", and "Blank B". , "Bell", "Replay A", "Replay B", "Watermelon A", "Watermelon B", "Cherry", "Blank A". Here, "blank A" and "blank B" are symbols included in the symbol combination that constitutes the winning combination like other symbols, and do not mean the symbols that do not constitute the winning combination, but "blank A". As a symbol combination constituting the winning combination including "watermelon B / replay A / blank A", for example, the replay 03 is set, and as a symbol combination constituting the winning combination including "blank B", for example, "Watermelon B / Replay A / Blank B" is replay 03. The configuration shown in the figure is just an example, and there is no problem even if the type of symbol is increased / decreased or changed.

Next, FIGS. 12 to 15 are a list of symbol combinations 1 to 4 in the present embodiment. In the present embodiment, there are a plurality of symbol combinations for each condition device, and as will be described later, depending on the stop order and stop position of the left reel M51, the middle reel M52, and the right reel M53, any of them will be used. It is configured so that one of the symbol combinations is stopped and displayed on the effective line (the above-mentioned one line). Even if the same type of symbols are not aligned on the effective line, it is easy for the player to align the same symbols in a row on the line other than the effective line (in the case of watermelon, in the middle row). Three watermelon symbols are aligned in a straight line on any of the reels, such as in a straight line).

Next, FIGS. 16 to 20 are a list of condition devices 1 to 5 in this embodiment. In the present embodiment, the re-game combinations are provided from re-game-A to re-game H3 (condition device numbers 1 to 22), and are set to the stop order and stop position of the left reel M51, the middle reel M52, and the right reel M53. Depending on the situation, the re-game combination to be stopped and displayed may be different. The conditional device number may be referred to as a winning number. Further, in the item of "pushing order, etc.", the types of replaying combinations that are stopped and displayed according to the stopping order are described, for example, "left reel M51: 1, middle reel M52: 2, right reel M53: 3". In the case of "123", it means that the reels are stopped in the order of pushing "left reel M51-> middle reel M52-> right reel M53". In that case, if the game is stopped in the order of "123" = "left → middle → right", the symbol combination that becomes "re-game 06" will be stopped and displayed. Furthermore, when stopped in the order of "left → right → middle", the symbol combination that becomes "replay 04" is stopped and displayed, and when the middle first stop is performed, regardless of the reel type of the second stop and the third stop. When the symbol combination that becomes "re-game 04" is stopped and displayed and the first right stop is performed, the symbol combination that becomes "re-game 03" is stopped and displayed regardless of the reel types of the second stop and the third stop. Will be. With this configuration, if the correct answer is given in the push order, the game state (AT state or RT state) is promoted (shifted to a game state that is highly profitable for the player), or if the push order cannot be answered correctly, the game state (AT-related state). It is possible to create a playability in which the state (state or RT state) falls (shifts to a game state with low profit for the player). Also, in the case of "winning-A1 (bell)" (conditional device number 23), it is stopped in the order of "123" = "left → middle → right", that is, if the correct answer is given in the pressing order, 7 cards will be paid out. It is configured to stop in another push order, that is, if the correct answer cannot be answered in the push order, one card will be paid out. By configuring in this way, ATs such as "AT in progress" and "AT in preparation" are related. Navigating the push order of the re-game combination and the push order of the bell in the state (displaying the push order that gives the highest profit on the push order display device D270), and related to AT such as "normal game state" and "AT precursor state" It is possible to create a plurality of gaming states in which the profit margins of the players are different so that the push order is not navigated to the states. The state related to AT will be described later. In the case of "winning-E1" (conditional device number 42), the game is stopped in the order of "123" = "left → middle → right". Even if the cards are stopped in order, that is, if the correct answer cannot be obtained in the push order, there is a 1/4 chance that 3 cards will be paid out. In addition, the specific symbol is configured to stop at 3/4 when the correct answer cannot be answered in the pressing order (the medal is not paid out). Here, "specific symbol is stopped" means that the symbol combination that triggers the transition of the RT state is stopped and displayed (displayed). In the present embodiment, as described in the RT state transition diagram of FIG. 38 to be described later, when the specific symbol stops at "RT0", "RT2", and "RT3", it is configured to shift to "RT1". There is.

Next, FIG. 21 shows a lottery probability (also referred to as a winning rate) in which the condition device number (also referred to as a winning number or winning combination) relating to the small winning combination and the replaying combination in the present embodiment is determined by the winning combination lottery means. It is a list. In the figure, the winning rate of the conditional device number is shown. For example, in the case of "winning-E1", the specific symbol can be stopped, but the probability that the specific symbol actually stops is shown in the figure. It does not mean that it will stop at the indicated probability (80/65536), but in a situation where push order navigation does not occur, the correct answer is not given in the three-choice push order in which the three-card combination will win, and a specific operation If you do not operate at the timing, the specific symbol will stop, and in a situation where push order navigation can occur, if you stop the reel according to the push order navigation, 3 cards will always win a prize. .. Specifically, for example, in a situation where the condition device number 42 corresponding to "winning-E1" is determined, (1) when the left stop button D41 is operated in the first stop operation, winning 09 to winning. When any of the three cards in 12 wins a prize and the middle stop button D42 is operated in (2-1) first stop operation, the bell symbol stops on the middle reel, and (2-2) first. 2 When the left reel is stopped by the stop operation, either watermelon A or watermelon B (watermelon symbol constituting the winning 13 within 4 frames after receiving the stop operation) is stopped depending on the stop operation timing. (2-3) When the right reel is stopped in the third stop operation, the seven symbols (seven symbols that make up the winning 13 within 4 frames after receiving the stop operation) are displayed as stopped depending on the stop operation timing. Replay A is stopped when the operation is performed or when the operation timing is such that the Seven symbol cannot be stopped and displayed (the operation timing other than the watermelon A of symbol number 4 to the seven symbol of symbol number 8 on the upper stage of the right reel). indicate. Therefore, the specific symbol 02 shown in FIG. 15 is stopped and displayed. On the other hand, when the middle stop button D42 was operated in the (3-1) first stop operation, the bell symbol was stopped in the middle reel, and the right reel was stopped in the (3-2) second stop operation. In some cases, the seven symbols (seven symbols that make up the winning 13 within 4 frames after receiving the stop operation) are stopped and displayed depending on the stop operation timing, and the stop operation timing (right reel) where the seven symbols cannot be stopped and displayed. When the watermelon A of the symbol number 4 to the operation timing other than the seven symbols of the symbol number 8 is operated in the upper row, the replay A is stopped and displayed. (3-3) When the left reel is stopped by the third stop operation, watermelon A or watermelon B (watermelon symbol constituting the winning 13 within 4 frames after receiving the stop operation) depending on the stop operation timing) Stop any of. Therefore, the specific symbol 02 shown in FIG. 15 is stopped and displayed. As a result, when the first stop operation is the middle reel, the right reel is operated at a specific operation timing (the operation timing of the watermelon A of the symbol number 4 to the seven symbol of the symbol number 8 on the upper stage of the reel). Is configured so that the symbol combination corresponding to the winning 13 is stopped and displayed, so that the winning probability of the winning 13 is 5/20 (1/4). Further, when the right reel is operated at a timing other than a specific operation timing (the operation timing of the watermelon A of the symbol number 4 to the seven symbol of the symbol number 8 on the upper stage of the reel), it is specified instead of the symbol combination corresponding to the winning 13 Since the symbol combination corresponding to the symbol is configured to be stopped and displayed, the stop display probability of the specific symbol is 15/20 (3/4).

Similarly, when the right stop button D43 is operated by the (4-1) first stop operation, the bell symbol is stopped on the right reel, and the left reel is stopped by the (4-2) second stop operation. If this happens, either sheep or watermelon A or watermelon B (the symbols that make up the winning 13 within 4 frames after receiving the stop operation) are stopped depending on the stop operation timing, and (4-3) 3rd stop. When the middle reel is stopped by the operation, the blank symbol B (the blank symbol B constituting the winning 17 within 4 frames after receiving the stop operation) is stopped and displayed depending on the stop operation timing, and the blank symbol B is displayed. The symbol B was stopped and displayed at the stop operation timing (the sheep with the symbol number 18 in the middle reel, the replay A with the symbol number 19, the cherry with the symbol number 0 to the operation timing other than the blank B symbol with the symbol number 2). In that case, the cherry pattern is stopped and displayed. Therefore, the specific symbol 03 shown in FIG. 20 is stopped and displayed. On the other hand, when the right stop button D43 was operated in the (5-1) first stop operation, the bell symbol was stopped in the right reel, and the middle reel was stopped in the (5-2) second stop operation. In this case, the blank symbol B (the blank symbol B constituting the winning 17 within 4 frames after receiving the stop operation) is stopped and displayed depending on the stop operation timing, and the stop operation timing at which the blank symbol B cannot be stopped and displayed. (Operation timing other than the sheep with symbol number 18, replay A with symbol number 19, cherry with symbol number 0 to blank B with symbol number 2 in the middle of the middle reel), the cherry symbol is stopped and displayed. Then, when the left reel is stopped in the (5-3) third stop operation, sheep or watermelon A or watermelon B (winning 13 within 4 frames after receiving the stop operation) is configured depending on the stop operation timing. Stop and display any of the symbols). Therefore, the specific symbol 03 shown in FIG. 20 is stopped and displayed. As a result, when the first stop operation is the right reel, the middle reel has a specific operation timing (the sheep with the symbol number 18 in the middle stage of the middle reel, the replay A with the symbol number 19, the cherry with the symbol number 0 to the symbol number 2). When the operation is performed at an operation timing other than the blank B symbol of the above, the winning probability of the winning 17 is 5/20 (1 /) because the symbol combination corresponding to the winning 17 is stopped and displayed. 4). Further, the middle reel is operated at a timing other than a specific operation timing (operation timing other than the sheep with symbol number 18 in the middle stage of the middle reel, replay A with symbol number 19, cherry with symbol number 0 to blank B symbol with symbol number 2). In that case, the stop display probability of the specific symbol is 15/20 (3/4) because the symbol combination corresponding to the specific symbol is stopped and displayed instead of the symbol combination corresponding to the winning 17. Will be. The stop display of the specific symbol when "winning-E1" is determined as the conditional device number has been described, but the probability that this specific symbol is stopped and displayed is the same for "winning-E2" to "winning-E6". It has been calculated.

For example, in the situation where the condition device number 43 corresponding to "Winning-E2" is determined, when the first stop operation is the middle reel, the sheep symbol is stopped and displayed on the right reel (1/4). When the operation is performed, the symbol combination corresponding to the winning 14 is stopped and displayed, and at other operation timings (3/4), the specific symbol 02 or the specific symbol 03 is stopped and displayed. In addition, when the first stop operation is on the right reel under the condition that the condition device number of "winning-E2" is determined, when the watermelon A is operated at the timing (1/4) when the watermelon A is stopped and displayed on the middle reel. The symbol combination corresponding to the winning 18 is stopped and displayed, and the specific symbol 03 is stopped and displayed at other operation timings (3/4).

Further, in the situation where the condition device number 44 corresponding to "Winning-E3" is determined, when the first stop operation is the left reel, the blank B is stopped and displayed on the middle reel (1/4). When the operation is performed, the symbol combination corresponding to the winning 09 is stopped and displayed, and at other operation timings (3/4), the specific symbol 01 is stopped and displayed. In addition, when the condition device number of "Winning-E3" is determined and the first stop operation is the right reel, when the watermelon B is operated at the timing (1/4) when the watermelon B is stopped and displayed on the middle reel. The symbol combination corresponding to the winning 19 is stopped and displayed, and the specific symbol 03 is stopped and displayed at other operation timings (3/4).

Further, in the situation where the condition device number 45 corresponding to "Winning-E4" is determined, when the first stop operation is the left reel, the watermelon A is stopped and displayed on the middle reel (1/4). When the operation is performed, the symbol combination corresponding to the winning 10 is stopped and displayed, and at other operation timings (3/4), the specific symbol 01 is stopped and displayed. In addition, when the first stop operation is on the right reel under the condition that the condition device number of "winning-E4" is determined, when the blank A is operated at the timing (1/4) when the blank A is stopped and displayed on the middle reel. The symbol combination corresponding to the winning 20 is stopped and displayed, and the specific symbol 03 is stopped and displayed at other operation timings (3/4).

Further, in the situation where the condition device number 46 corresponding to "Winning-E5" is determined, when the first stop operation is the left reel, the watermelon B is stopped and displayed on the middle reel (1/4). When the operation is performed, the symbol combination corresponding to the winning 11 is stopped and displayed, and at other operation timings (3/4), the specific symbol 01 is stopped and displayed. Further, in the situation where the condition device number of "Winning-E5" is determined, when the first stop operation is the middle reel, the operation is performed at the timing (1/4) when the blank A is stopped and displayed on the right reel. The symbol combination corresponding to the winning 15 is stopped and displayed, and the specific symbol 02 is stopped and displayed at other operation timings (3/4).

Further, in the situation where the condition device number 47 corresponding to "Winning-E6" is determined, when the first stop operation is the left reel, the blank A is stopped and displayed on the middle reel (1/4). When the operation is performed, the symbol combination corresponding to the winning 12 is stopped and displayed, and at other operation timings (3/4), the specific symbol 01 is stopped and displayed. In addition, when the first stop operation is the middle reel in the situation where the condition device number of "winning-E6" is determined, when the blank B is operated at the timing (1/4) when the blank B is stopped and displayed on the right reel. The symbol combination corresponding to the winning 16 is stopped and displayed, and the specific symbol 02 is stopped and displayed at other operation timings (3/4).

Further, in the present embodiment, the appearance rate (lottery probability) of the winning combination (particularly, the replaying combination) can be different depending on the RT state, and the "replaying combination" (all the replaying combination is totaled). The appearance rate) is higher in the case of "RT3" than in other RT states. In addition, "re-game 03, 04" (so-called fall re-game combination, which can be stopped and displayed by the condition device numbers 7 to 14, and the symbol combination corresponding to the re-game combination is stopped in a situation where the bonus is not won. When it is displayed, the normal game state (which will shift to the normal game state (“RT1”)) is mainly won in “RT3”, and almost never appears in other RT states. In addition, "re-game 05" that can be stopped and displayed by the condition device numbers 2 to 6 (promotion re-game that is promoted to "RT2" when the symbol combination corresponding to the re-game combination is stopped and displayed at RT1 The role) is configured to appear only in "RT1". In addition, "re-game 06" which can be stopped and displayed by the condition device numbers 7 to 11 (when the symbol combination corresponding to the re-game combination is stopped and displayed in "RT2", the promotion is promoted to "RT3". (Re-game role) is mainly won in "RT2", and almost never appears in other RT states. The transition of the RT state and the state related to AT accompanying the stop display of the symbol combination that serves as the replaying combination will be described later. Further, as will be described later, in the present embodiment, the push order navigation for notifying the player of the reel stop order, which is most advantageous to the player, can be executed by the push order display device D270 and the effect display device SG. If the reels are not stopped according to the push order navigation, the lottery probability of the winning combination will be different from the value shown in the figure {For example, "RT1" and the push order navigation does not occur (for example, In the "normal game state" etc.), the probability that the bell (7-card combination) is stopped and displayed is lower than the probability shown in the figure. } In addition, there is no problem even if the lottery probability is changed as appropriate. Further, in the present embodiment, the bonus is configured so that it can overlap with the small role, and overlaps with a part of the weak watermelon, the strong watermelon, the strong chance eye, etc. (for example, a part of the strong watermelon). It is "bonus + strong watermelon", and it is configured to win "single strong watermelon" at 130/65536 and "bonus + strong watermelon" at 30/65536). The weak watermelon of the condition device number 48 has a number of 20, the strong watermelon of the condition device number 49 has a number of 30, and the strong chance of the condition device number 50 has a number of 10 overlapping with the bonus. Further, the small winning combination probability shown in the figure is the probability when the BB is not activated, and when the BB is activated, the seven (for example, the seven symbol can be stopped and displayed) with a predetermined probability (for example, 1/100). Replaying role) is won, and all others are configured to win "Winning-I" (special role in RB). The overlap with the bonus is not limited to the watermelon (small role), and may overlap with a part of the replay role. For example, a part of the strong cherry (replaying combination) of the condition device number 16 or all of the strong cherries (replaying combination) may overlap with the bonus combination (in this embodiment, regardless of the RT state). It overlaps with the bonus role in the number 2). Further, it may overlap with a part of the RT transition replays (replay-C1 to replay-C5) of the condition device numbers 7 to 11 or all of the RT transition replays (in the present embodiment, depending on the RT state). Re-game-C1 to re-game-C5 may be duplicated by 1 each (5 in total). In this way, by making the bonus overlap with the RT transition replay, there is a possibility that the bonus will be won even when the RT transition replay is won, and even if the RT transition replay is stopped and displayed, the bonus is denied. Since it will not be done, it is possible to give the player expectations. In this way, for example, the probability of winning multiple prizes for the bonus combination and any of the small roles is 60/65536, the probability of winning multiple times for the bonus combination and any of the replaying combinations is 7/65536, and the bonus combination is independent. The probability of winning is set as 33/65536, and the total value of the probability of winning the bonus combination is 100/65536.

The lower part of the figure is a list of expected values when there is push order navigation. In the figure, when the push order navigation is executed in a state where the push order navigation can be executed by the push order display device D270 and the effect display device SG such as during AT, the reel is stopped according to the navigation. The average number of medals paid out per game (the average number of medals paid out by the winning small wins, also called the expected number of game media obtained in one game) and the expected value of medal increase / decrease per game (3 medals) It is the ratio of the number of medals to be paid out to the number of medals to be inserted when playing with a bet. If it is larger than 1, the expected value will be positive and the number of medals will increase, while if it is less than 1, the expected value will be. It will be negative and the number of medals will decrease). The number of medals inserted per game (the number of game media inserted when playing one game) is three, and if the average number of payouts per game is greater than 3, medals are expected to increase or decrease per game. The value is configured to be greater than 1. As shown in the figure, in the present embodiment, the expected medal increase / decrease value per game is larger than 1 only in the case of "RT3", and in the RT state other than "RT3", per game. The expected medal increase / decrease value is less than 1. The figures in the figure do not take into account the increase or decrease in medals due to bonuses. That is, when the game is advanced in the situation where the push order navigation occurs (also referred to as the case where the operation is performed in the optimum operation mode or the case where the operation is performed in the advantageous operation mode), the number of medals will increase in "RT3". , In the RT state other than "RT3", the medals will decrease. In addition, the present invention is not limited to this, and the expected value of medal increase / decrease may be larger than 1 in "RT2" and "RT4". In addition, when the symbol combination to be the re-game combination is stopped and displayed, the number of bets (3) in the previous game is actually automatically bet, but in calculating the expected value of medal increase / decrease in this embodiment, medals are used. It is calculated assuming that 3 medals are paid out.

In addition, the calculation method of the average number of payouts per game and the expected value of medal increase / decrease per game in each RT state is that when the RT state is "RT0", the average number of payouts per game is {replay combination. Total number of placements (replay combination appearance rate) (total number of placements for condition device numbers 1 to 22 = 8951) x number of payouts (3 cards) + bell (7 cards) number (7 cards) Sum of small winning combination (appearance rate of small winning combination) (total number of placements for condition device numbers 23 to 41 = 16924) x number of payouts (7 cards) in bell (7-card combination) + number of placements of 3-card combination (small combination appearance rate) Sum (total number of placements for condition device numbers 42 to 49 = 11676) x total number of payouts (3 cards) + number of placements (small combination appearance rate) in the combination of 3 cards (placement for condition device number 50) It can be calculated as the sum of the numbers = 30) × the number of payouts in the 1-card combination (1 card)} / the sum of all the numbers (65536) = 2.752365112. Further, the expected value of increase / decrease in medals per game can be calculated as follows: average number of medals paid out per game / number of medals inserted per game (3) = 0.917455037.

Next, when the RT state is "RT1", the average number of payouts per game is {the sum of the number of replays (replay combination appearance rate) (the sum of the numbers for condition device numbers 1 to 22). = 8989) x total number of payouts (3) + bell (7-card combination) number (small combination appearance rate) in the replay combination (total number of placements for condition device numbers 23 to 41 = 16924) x bell Number of payouts in (7-card combination) + total number of placements of 3-card combination (small combination appearance rate) (total number of placements for condition device numbers 42 to 49 = 11676) x number of payouts in 3-card combination (7-card combination) 3) + 1 sum of the number of cards (small win appearance rate) (total number of cards for condition device number 50 = 30) x number of payouts in 1 card (1 card)} / total number of all cards It can be calculated as (65536) = 2.754104614. Further, the expected value of increase / decrease in medals per game can be calculated as follows: average number of medals paid out per game / number of medals inserted per game (3) = 0.918034871.

Next, when the RT state is "RT2", the average number of payouts per game is {the sum of the number of replays (replay combination appearance rate) (the sum of the numbers for condition device numbers 1 to 22). = 8984) x total number of payouts (3 cards) + number of bells (7 cards) (small combination appearance rate) in the replay combination (total number of placements for condition device numbers 23 to 41 = 16924) x bell Number of payouts in (7-card combination) + total number of placements of 3-card combination (small combination appearance rate) (total number of placements for condition device numbers 42 to 49 = 11676) x number of payouts in 3-card combination (7-card combination) 3) + 1 sum of the number of cards (small win appearance rate) (total number of cards for condition device number 50 = 30) x number of payouts in 1 card (1 card)} / total number of all cards It can be calculated as (65536) = 2.735876. Further, the expected value of increase / decrease in medals per game can be calculated as follows: average number of medals paid out per game / number of medals inserted per game (3) = 0.917959.

Next, when the RT state is "RT3", the average number of payouts per game is {the sum of the number of replays (replay combination appearance rate) (the sum of the numbers for condition device numbers 1 to 22). = 36837) x total number of payouts (3) in replaying combination + number of bells (7-card combination) (small combination appearance rate) (total number of placements for condition device numbers 23 to 41 = 16924) x bell Number of payouts in (7-card combination) + total number of placements of 3-card combination (small combination appearance rate) (total number of placements for condition device numbers 42 to 49 = 11676) x number of payouts in 3-card combination (7-card combination) 3) + 1 sum of the number of cards (small win appearance rate) (total number of cards for condition device number 50 = 30) x number of payouts in 1 card (1 card)} / total number of all cards It can be calculated as (65536) = 4.028885. Further, the expected value of increase / decrease in medals per game can be calculated as the average number of medals paid out per game / number of medals inserted per game (3) = 1.342962.

Next, when the RT state is "RT4", the average number of payouts per game is {the sum of the number of replays (replay combination appearance rate) (the sum of the numbers for condition device numbers 1 to 22). = 8951) x total number of payouts (3) + bell (7-card combination) number (small combination appearance rate) in the replay combination (total number of placements for condition device numbers 23 to 41 = 16924) x bell Number of payouts in (7-card combination) + total number of placements of 3-card combination (small combination appearance rate) (total number of placements for condition device numbers 42 to 49 = 11676) x number of payouts in 3-card combination (7-card combination) 3) + 1 sum of the number of cards (small win appearance rate) (total number of cards for condition device number 50 = 30) x number of payouts in 1 card (1 card)} / total number of all cards It can be calculated as (65536) = 2.752365. Further, the expected value of increase / decrease in medals per game can be calculated as the average number of medals paid out per game / the number of medals inserted per game (3 medals) = 0.917455.

It has an AT addition lottery means to be executed.

Next, FIGS. 23 to 42 are flowcharts showing a general flow of processing performed by the main control board M in the present embodiment.

The flowchart is mainly composed of terminals (shown in rounded rectangles) indicating processing steps (shown in rectangles), judgments (shown in diamonds), flow lines (arrows), start / end / return, etc. ing. Further, when the details of the processing steps are illustrated by another flowchart, the one that refers to the other flowchart is illustrated as a subroutine (shown by a rectangle in which the left and right lines are double lines). .. Here, at the development stage of the game machine, the game machines with different specifications are also developed at the same time, but in this example, the game machines with different specifications are executed in the processing on the main control board M side. It is configured so as not to leave subroutines that are normally used (subroutines that are not normally used), and prevent processing related to unused subroutines that are not normally executed due to noise or cheating.

First, FIG. 23 is a flowchart showing a flow of processing that is executed for the first time on the CPU MC of the main control board M after the power of the rotating cylinder type game machine P is turned on (or at the time of system reset or user reset). .. First, in step 4000, after turning on the power of the rotating game machine P, in step 4002, the CPUMC of the main control board M sets a timer interrupt (here, the timer interrupt is not started but the timer is started). Only the type of interrupt is set, and in the subsequent processing, when the timer interrupt is started, the flowchart related to the timer interrupt processing described later is periodically executed). Next, in step 4004, the CPU MC of the main control board M executes serial communication settings (speed, data length, data transmission method setting) and the like as function settings of the main control chip C. Next, in step 4006, the CPU MC of the main control board M calculates the checksum from the start address of the RAM area to the address immediately before the checksum area. Next, in step 4008, the CPUMC of the main control board M checks the RAM area (for example, the power is turned off and the power is turned off and restored based on the calculated checksum and the checksum data held in the checksum area. (Checks whether the data stored in the built-in RAMC 120 is correctly held) and generates power-off / recovery data. Next, in step 4010, the CPU MC of the main control board M confirms the switch state of the setting key switch M20. Next, in step 4014, the CPU MC of the main control board M determines whether or not the setting key switch M20 is off.

In the case of Yes in step 4014, in step 4016, the CPUMC of the main control board M turns on / off the power off processing flag in the RAM (turns on in step 4904) and the checksum state of all the RAMs (in step 4006). (Check result of) is referred to, and it is determined whether or not the power supply cutoff / recovery data in the RAM is normal. In the case of Yes in step 4016, in step 4018, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines and sets the initialization range of the RAM to the unused RAM range (for example, sets it in the register area). Next, in step 4020, the CPUMC of the main control board M executes initialization of the RAM area within the initialization range determined in step 4018. Next, in step 4022, the CPU MC of the main control board M returns the stack pointer based on the data related to the stack pointer saved in the process when the power is turned off (step 4902). Next, in step 4036, the CPUMC of the main control board M refers to the inside of the RAM area, and determines whether or not the data related to the set value in the RAM area is within the normal range (1 to 6 in this example). judge. In the case of Yes in step 4036, in step 4038, the CPUMC of the main control board M executes reading of the input port. Next, in step 4040, the CPU MC of the main control board M starts the timer interrupt set in step 4002. Next, in step 4042, the CPUMC of the main control board M turns off the power-off processing completed flag, and returns to the processing at the time of power-off according to the returned stack pointer.

If No in step 4016, the CPUMC of the main control board M sets the backup error display (for example, sets the error number in the register area) in step 4024. Next, in step 4300, the CPU MC of the main control board M executes the non-recoverable error processing described later.

If No in step 4036, in step 4046, the CPU MC of the main control board M sets a set value error display (for example, it will be displayed on the payout number display device D270) (for example, in the register area). Set to). Next, in step 4300, the CPU MC of the main control board M executes the non-recoverable error processing described later.

If No in step 4014, in step 4028, the CPUMC of the main control board M turns on / off the power off processing flag in the RAM (turns on in step 4904) and the checksum state of all the RAMs (step). (Check result in 4006) is referred to, and it is determined whether or not the power off / returning data in the RAM is normal. In the case of Yes in step 4028, in step 4030, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines and sets the initialization range of the RAM to all ranges except the set value in the RAM (for example, sets in the register area). , Step 4034. On the other hand, if No in step 4028, in step 4032, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines and sets the initialization range of the RAM to all the ranges in the RAM (for example, sets it in the register area), and then steps. Move to 4034. Next, in step 4034, the CPUMC of the main control board M executes initialization of the RAM area within the initialization range determined in step 4030 or step 4032. Next, in step 4100, the CPU MC of the main control board M executes the setting change device control process described later.

Although not shown, it is preferable that the initial value (value at the start of processing) of the temporary storage area (RAM area, etc.) mounted on the main control board M is configured so as not to be a value at which the special game is executed. (To prevent the special game from being erroneously executed when the process of determining the execution of the special game is executed immediately after the start of the program processing due to noise or cheating). Further, although not shown, when a random number such as a winning random number is stored in the RAM area of the main control board M, a dedicated storage area is secured and the information related to the random number is stored in the byte. It is preferable to memorize only the information related to the random number (do not memorize other information such as various timer values) (when operating another data stored in the same 1 byte, due to noise or the like. To prevent the information related to random numbers from being rewritten).

Next, FIG. 24 is a flowchart of the setting change device control process according to the subroutine of step 4100 in FIG. 23. First, in step 4102, the CPU MC of the main control board M executes the initialization of the stack pointer (initializes at the start address of the process). Next, in step 4104, the CPU MC of the main control board M activates a timer interrupt. Next, in step 4106, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the set value in the RAM area is within the normal range (1 to 6 in this example). In the case of Yes in step 4106, in step 4108, the CPUMC of the main control board M sets a predetermined value (for example, 1 = the most disadvantageous value for the player) in the set value, and proceeds to step 4110. On the other hand, even if No in step 4106, the process proceeds to step 4110. Next, in step 4110, the CPUMC of the main control board M displays an error display LED (not shown) indicating that the setting change device is operating, displays a setting value on the setting display LED (not shown), and steps. It shifts to 4112.

Next, in step 4112, the CPU MC of the main control board M determines whether or not the setting / reset button M30 has been switched from off to on. In the case of Yes in step 4112, in step 4114, the CPUMC of the main control board M adds 1 to the current set value (if the set value exceeds 6 as a result of the addition, the set value becomes 1). , Step 4116. Even if No in step 4112, the process proceeds to step 4116. Next, in step 4116, the CPU MC of the main control board M determines whether or not the start lever D50 has been switched from off to on. If No in step 4116, the process proceeds to step 4112, and the processes of steps 4112 to 4116 are looped. In the case of Yes in step 4116, in step 4118, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the setting key switch M20 is switched from on to off. If No in step 4118, the process of step 4118 is looped. On the other hand, in the case of Yes in step 4118, in step 4120, the CPUMC of the main control board M displays an error display LED (not shown) indicating that the operation of the setting change device has been completed, and displays the setting display LED (not shown). The display of the set value is erased, and the process proceeds to the game progress control process of step 4200.

Next, FIG. 25 is a flowchart of non-recoverable error processing according to the subroutine of step 4300 (and called in another flowchart) in FIG. 23. First, in step 4302, the CPUMC of the main control board M disables interrupts (after that, the flowchart related to the timer interrupt time processing described later is not executed). Next, in step 4304, the CPU MC of the main control board M sets the output port address and the number of output ports. Next, in step 4306, the CPUMC of the main control board M turns off the output ports (in this example, 0 to 6, display outputs to various LEDs and drive outputs to various motors). Next, in step 4308, the CPUMC of the main control board M sets the next port output address (by repeating this, the display output to the various LEDs and the drive output to the various motors are sequentially stopped). Next, in step 4310, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the output to each output port is completed. In the case of Yes in step 4310, in step 4312, the CPUMC of the main control board M executes the set error display (some error has occurred when executing this process), and the process is concerned. Is repeated, and when the power supply voltage drops, a reset signal is input and the process ends. (That is, it goes into an infinite loop, so it does not accept any operation that prompts it to return). If No in step 4310, the process proceeds to step 4306. The processes of steps 4306 to 4310 are processes for clearing the output to the LED / motor (however, since the external output signal is not cleared, the hall computer side provides information on the error and the game progress status when the error occurs. It is possible to output to).

Next, FIG. 26 is a flowchart of the game progress control process (first sheet) according to the subroutine of step 4200 in FIG. 24. First, in step 4202, the CPU MC of the main control board M sets the stack pointer (initializes with the start address of the process). Next, in step 4204, the CPUMC of the main control board M sets the data in the RAM area required for the game (for example, the maximum number of bets, the valid line of winning, etc.). In step 4204, the data for clearing the data used in the previous game {for example, the condition device number (winning number), the effect group number, the instruction information} (“0” for clearing the RAM address) The process of setting the data) in the RAM is also included. It should be noted that the condition device number, the effect group number, the instruction information, and the like may not be cleared, and the number selected when the next game is executed may be overwritten. Next, in step 4205, the CPU MC of the main control board M sets the RT state (for example, “RT0” or the like) in the game (sets the RT state determined in step 4704 of FIG. 37). Then, the set RT state is transmitted to the sub-control board S side. The process of setting the RT state may be executed in step 4704 of FIG. Further, the RT state may be transmitted to the sub-control board S side in step 4704. Next, in step 4206, the CPUMC of the main control board M sets the state related to AT in the game (for example, "AT in progress state", etc.) (sets the state related to AT determined in step 4756 of FIG. 39). .. In step 4206, the state related to the set AT is also transmitted to the sub-control board S side. Further, the process of setting the state related to AT may be executed in step 4756 of FIG. Next, in step 4207, the CPUMC of the main control board M is a command related to the state related to RT and the state related to AT in the game (command to the sub control board S side, and the effect related to the game in step 7100). Set the command) used to set the pattern. Next, in step 4208, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the medal payout device HP is full of game medals. Specifically, a sub tank (not shown) for storing medals overflowing from the medal payout device HP is provided, and a determination is made based on the continuity / non-conduction of current by a plurality of fullness detection sensors provided in the sub tank (via medals). If the current is conducted, it is judged to be full). If Yes in step 4208, the process proceeds to step 4218.

On the other hand, if No in step 4208, in step 4210, the CPUMC of the main control board M turns on the medal full error flag (for example, updates the inside of the medal full error flag area in the RAM area with a value corresponding to on. ). Next, in step 4212, the CPUMC of the main control board M executes the display of the error number corresponding to the medal full error with the 7-segment LED (for example, the storage display LED or the acquired number LED). Next, in step 4214, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the medal full error has been cleared (for example, whether or not the current from the sub tank is non-conducting and the setting / reset button M30 is pressed). To do. In the case of Yes in step 4214, in step 4216, the CPUMC of the main control board M turns off the medal full error flag (for example, updates the medal full error flag area in the RAM area with a value corresponding to off), and then steps. Move to 4218. On the other hand, if No in step 4214, the process proceeds to step 4212. Next, in step 4218, the CPUMC of the main control board M permits the acceptance of medal insertion (the insertion operation is automatically executed in the next game of the replaying combination), and the next process (step 4220). Process). Here, in step 4218, the blocker D100 is turned on (process for forming the medal flow path). Specifically, when the re-game combination is established in the previous game, the blocker D100 is turned on on the condition that the current number of stored cards (credits) is less than the predetermined value (50 cards in this example). Execute. In other words, when the current storage number (credit) is a predetermined value, the blocker D100 is not turned on. On the other hand, when the re-game combination is not established in the previous game, the blocker D100 is uniformly turned on. With this configuration, even if the re-game combination is established, if the number of stored cards (credits) does not reach the predetermined value, the game medal can be inserted, such as "RT1". When staying in the RT state (for example, "RT3") where the winning probability of the re-game role is higher than that of the RT state, or when the re-game role is difficult to understand by appearance (re-game pretending to be a small role: Even when the bell-bell-bell or the symbol combination in which the cherry is stopped on the left reel is stopped on the invalid line, the player can play the game with good rhythm (without discomfort).

Next, FIG. 27 is a flowchart of the game progress control process (second sheet) according to the subroutine of step 4200 in FIG. 24. First, in step 4220, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the game medal is bet or the credit does not exist. In the case of Yes in step 4220, in step 4221, the CPUMC of the main control board M satisfies the set value display condition (for example, when the door switch D80, the setting door switch M10, and the setting key switch M20 are all turned on, the setting value display condition is satisfied. Judge whether or not the condition is satisfied). In the case of Yes in step 4221, in step 4222, the CPUMC of the main control board M is set to the setting display LED (not shown, but may be the payout number display device D270, the credit number display device D200, and the input number indicator light D210). The value is displayed and the process proceeds to step 4221. If No in step 4220 or 4221, in step 4224, the CPUMC of the main control board M executes management related to insertion and settlement of game medals. Next, in step 4225, the CPUMC of the main control board M confirms the number of game medals that can be accepted. Next, in step 4226, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the blocker D100 is on. In the case of Yes in step 4226, in step 4227, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the first insertion sensor D20s or the second insertion sensor D30s is on (in this embodiment, the insertion of medals is performed. It has two throw-in sensors for detection, and when the first throw-in sensor D20s or the second throw-in sensor D30s is turned on, it is determined that one game medal has been accepted). In the case of Yes in step 4227, in step 4230, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the first input sensor D20s and the second input sensor D30s are off (first input sensor D20s or second input sensor D20s or second input). When the first throwing sensor D20s and the second throwing sensor D30s are turned off after the sensor D30s is turned on, it is determined that one received game medal has passed through the first throwing sensor D20s and the second throwing sensor D30s. ). In the case of Yes in step 4230, in step 4231, it is determined that the CPUMC of the main control board M has accepted the insertion of one normal game medal. Although not shown, after step 4231, whether or not the CPUMC of the main control board M has a maximum number of credits (50 in this example) and a maximum number of bets (3 in this example). Is determined, and if Yes, the blocker D100 is controlled to be off (a state in which the medal flow path is not formed). If No in step 4230, the process of step 4230 is repeated, and if No in step 4226 or 4227, the process proceeds to step 4232.

Next, in step 4232, the CPU MC of the main control board M determines whether or not the settlement button D60 has been operated. In the case of Yes in step 4232, in step 4233, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not there is a remaining number of credits or a bet game medal. In the case of Yes in step 4233, in step 4234, the CPUMC of the main control board M turns on the hopper drive flag (a flag in the RAM area, which is turned on when driving the hopper motor H80), and the game is played. Pay out one medal. Next, in step 4236, the CPU MC of the main control board M determines whether or not the first payout sensor H10s or the second payout sensor H20s is on (in the present embodiment, for detecting the payout of medals). It has two payout sensors, and when the first payout sensor H10s or the second payout sensor H20s is turned on, it is determined that one game medal is paid out). If Yes in step 4236, the process proceeds to step 4247. Here, although not specified in the flowchart, if the previous game was a re-game, only the remaining number of credits will be subject to settlement.

On the other hand, if No in step 4236, in step 4241, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not a predetermined time (for example, 5 seconds) has elapsed since the hopper was driven (after the processing timing of step 4234). .. Specifically, did the situation of determining that the medal was not paid out continued for a predetermined time even though the hopper drive signal was transmitted to the hopper motor H80 (the hopper motor H80 is rotating)? Judge whether or not. In the case of Yes in step 4241, in step 4242, the CPUMC of the main control board M turns on the medal empty error flag (for example, updates the inside of the medal empty error flag area with a value corresponding to on). Next, in step 4244, the CPUMC of the main control board M executes a medal empty error display. Next, in step 4245, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the medal empty error has been cleared (for example, whether or not the setting / reset button M30 has been pressed). In the case of Yes in step 4245, in step 4246, the CPUMC of the main control board M turns off the medal empty error flag (for example, updates the inside of the medal empty error flag area of the RAM area with a value corresponding to off) and steps. Move to 4247. On the other hand, if No in step 4245, the process proceeds to step 4244.

Next, in step 4247, the CPU MC of the main control board M determines whether or not the first payout sensor H10s and the second payout sensor H20s are off (the first payout sensor H10s or the second payout sensor H20s is turned on). When the first payout sensor H10s and the second payout sensor H20s are turned off, it is determined that the payout operation of one game medal in which the payout operation has been performed is completed). In the case of Yes in step 4247, in step 4248, the CPUMC of the main control board M turns off the hopper drive flag and proceeds to step 4233. If No in step 4241 or 4247, the process proceeds to step 4236.

On the other hand, in the case of No in step 4232 or step 4233, in step 4251, the start lever D50 is effective for the CPUMC of the main control board M (for example, a predetermined number of game medals for starting the game have been inserted, etc.). ), And it is determined whether or not the start lever D50 has been operated. In the case of Yes in step 4251, in step 4253, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the set value in the RAM area is within the normal range (1 to 6 in this example). In the case of Yes in step 4253, in step 4254, the CPUMC of the main control board M executes a process of acquiring a random number and turning off the blocker D100, and then shifts to the next process (process of step 4257). On the other hand, if No in step 4253, the CPUMC of the main control board M sets the set value error display (for example, sets the error number in the register area) in step 4256. Next, in step 4300, the CPU MC of the main control board M executes an unrecoverable error process. If No in step 4251, the process proceeds to step 4220.

Next, FIG. 28 is a flowchart of the game progress control process (third sheet) according to the subroutine of step 4200 in FIG. 24. First, in step 4257, the CPUMC of the main control board M starts an internal lottery (a lottery for determining a winning combination in the game). Next, in step 4258, the CPUMC of the main control board M changes the current AT-related state (also referred to as a notification game mode, a notification game state, an AT state, or a special mode) to an AT lottery execution state (“AT in progress state”). It is a state related to an AT that can execute a lottery to acquire the right to shift to "normal game state", and in this example, it is "normal game state", "normal BB internal medium game", and "normal BB state"). Determine if it exists. In the case of Yes in step 4258, in step 4400, the CPU MC of the main control board M executes the lever-time AT lottery execution control process described later, and proceeds to step 4450. On the other hand, even if No in step 4258, the process proceeds to step 4450. Next, in step 4450, the CPU MC of the main control board M executes the conditional device number management process described later. Next, in step 4259, the CPU MC of the main control board M refers to the AT counter M60, and determines whether or not this counter value is greater than 0 (whether or not the lottery for adding the number of AT games is executed). judge. In step 4259, a lottery for adding the number of AT games is executed based on the state related to AT (“AT preparing” or “AT in-BB internal game”, or “AT in BB state”, “AT precursor state”. , Or whether it is in the "AT in progress state"). In the case of Yes in step 4259, in step 4500, the CPU MC of the main control board M executes the execution process for adding the number of games at the time of lever, which will be described later, and proceeds to step 4550. On the other hand, even if No in step 4259, the process proceeds to step 4550. In this lever-time game number addition execution process, it is also possible to execute a lottery using a different lottery table depending on the state related to the AT.

Here, the states that can be taken as the states related to AT in this example are listed and described in detail. (1) The "normal game state" is a state in which the AT has not been won (the right to shift to the "AT in progress state" has not been acquired), and the bonus combination has not been won. (2) The "AT precursor state" is a state in which the AT has been won (the right to shift to the "AT in progress state" has been acquired), but the AT (push order navigation) has not been started ( AT will be started when the number of AT precursor games reaches "0"). (3) AT preparation is a state in which the player has won the AT (has acquired the right to shift to the "AT in progress state") and stays until the transition to the most advantageous RT state is performed. Navi) is performed, but the number of remaining AT games (AT counter value) is not subtracted. (4) The "AT in progress state" is a state in which AT (push order navigation) is performed and the number of remaining AT games (AT counter value) is subtracted. In the "AT specialized state" or the like, it is not necessary to subtract the number of remaining AT games (AT counter value). (5) The "AT return state" means that the winning probability of the re-game combination fluctuates based on the stop display of a predetermined symbol combination (for example, a specific symbol) in the "AT in-progress state", and the "AT return state" is again "AT". It is the state until it shifts to the "medium state". (6) The "normal BB internal medium game" is a state in which the BB combination is won in the "normal game state" and the BB combination has not won a prize. (7) The "game inside the BB during AT" is a state in which the BB combination is won in the "AT precursor state" or "AT preparation" or "AT return state" or "AT in progress state". In addition, the state in which the BB combination is won in the "AT precursor state" and the BB combination is not won may be set as the "normal BB internal medium game". (8) The "normal BB state" is a state executed when the symbol combination corresponding to the BB combination is stopped and displayed in the "normal BB internal medium game". (9) The AT-during BB state is a state executed when the symbol combination corresponding to the BB combination is stopped and displayed in the "AT-during BB internal middle game".

Next, in step 4550, the CPU MC of the main control board M executes the reel rotation start preparation process described later. Next, in step 4260, the rotation of all reels is started. Next, in step 4261, the CPUMC of the main control board M is requested to create a pull-in point creation request (rotating left reel M51, middle reel M52, right reel M53 stop position, stop order, etc. It is determined whether or not there is (as appropriate is required according to the stop position of the reel). If Yes in step 4261, in step 4262, the CPUMC of the main control board M creates a pull-in point and proceeds to step 4263. On the other hand, even if No in step 4261, the process proceeds to step 4263. Next, in step 4263, the CPUMC of the main control board M executes a reel stop acceptance / rejection check. Next, in step 4264, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not any of the stop buttons (left stop button D41, middle stop button D42, right stop button D43) has been operated. In the case of Yes in step 4264, in step 4265, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines the stop position of the reel corresponding to the stopped button (for example, the left reel M51 corresponds to the left stop button D41). , Step 4266. On the other hand, even if No in step 4264, the process proceeds to step 4266. Next, in step 4266, the CPUMC of the main control board M executes all reel stop check processing.

Next, in step 4270, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not all the reels (left reel M51, middle reel M52, right reel M53) have stopped. In the case of Yes in step 4270, in step 4271, the CPUMC of the main control board M compares the symbol stop position data in the RAM with the internally established combination stop possible position data. Next, in step 4271-2, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the combination of the displayed symbols is normal (must match the winning combination determined by the internal lottery). If it is judged to be abnormal). If Yes in step 4271-2, the process proceeds to step 4273-1. On the other hand, if No in step 4271-2, the CPUMC of the main control board M sets the display determination error display (for example, sets it in the register area) in step 4273. Next, in step 4300, the CPU MC of the main control board M executes an unrecoverable error process. On the other hand, if No in step 4270, the process proceeds to step 4261.

Next, in step 4274, the CPUMC of the main control board M executes the game medal payout process by winning, and shifts to the process of 4275. On the other hand, in the case of No in step 4273-1, the process proceeds to step 4275.

Next, FIG. 29 is a flowchart of the game progress control process (fourth sheet) according to the subroutine of step 4200 in FIG. 24. First, in step 4275, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not there is a prize for paying out the game medal {the game medal obtained by the prize exceeds the maximum number of credits (50 in this example). If the game medal is paid out}. In the case of Yes in step 4275, in step 4276, the CPUMC of the main control board M turns on the hopper drive flag (a flag in the first RAM area, which is turned on when driving the hopper motor H80). Pay out one game medal. Next, in step 4277, the CPU MC of the main control board M determines whether or not the first payout sensor H10s or the second payout sensor H20s is on (the first payout sensor H10s or the second payout sensor H20s is on). Then, it is determined that one game medal is being paid out). If Yes in step 4277, the process proceeds to step 4286.

On the other hand, if No in step 4277, in step 4279, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not a predetermined time (for example, 5 seconds) has elapsed since the hopper was driven (after the processing timing of step 4276). .. In the case of Yes in step 4279, in step 4280, the CPUMC of the main control board M turns on the medal empty error flag (for example, updates the inside of the medal empty error flag area of the RAM area with a value corresponding to on). Next, in step 4281, the CPUMC of the main control board M executes the medal empty error display with the 7-segment LED. Next, in step 4282, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the medal empty error has been cleared (for example, whether or not the setting / reset button M30 has been pressed). In the case of Yes in step 4282, in step 4283, the CPUMC of the main control board M turns off the medal empty error flag (for example, updates the inside of the medal empty error flag area of the RAM area with a value corresponding to off), and steps. Move to 4286. On the other hand, if No in step 4282, the process proceeds to step 4281.

Next, in step 4286, the CPU MC of the main control board M determines whether or not the first payout sensor H10s and the second payout sensor H20s are off (the first payout sensor H10s or the second payout sensor H20s is turned on). When the first payout sensor H10s and the second payout sensor H20s are turned off, it is determined that the payout operation of one game medal in which the payout operation has been performed is completed). If Yes in step 4286, in step 4288, the CPUMC of the main control board M turns off the hopper drive flag and proceeds to step 4290. If No in step 4279 or step 4286, the process proceeds to step 4277. Next, in step 4290, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the payout corresponding to the prize (the prize that became Yes in step 4275) is completed. If Yes in step 4290, the process proceeds to step 4291. If No in step 4275, the process proceeds to step 4291. If No in step 4290, the process proceeds to step 4276.

Next, in step 4291, the CPUMC of the main control board M is in a state related to AT that can execute a lottery as to whether or not to win the right to shift to the AT lottery execution state (“AT in progress state”). , In this example, it is determined whether or not the player is in the "normal game state" or the "normal BB state"). In the present embodiment, as the game state, the RT state, which is a game state in which the lottery probability of the re-game combination may differ, and the push order navigation (push order display device D270 and effect display device SG) relate to the condition device. It has two types of gaming states, that is, a state related to AT, which is a gaming state related to the presence / absence of occurrence of a reel stop order that is most advantageous to the player. The combination of the RT state and the AT-related state may be regarded as one type of gaming state as the ART-related state.

In the case of Yes in step 4291, in step 4800, the CPU MC of the main control board M executes the stop AT lottery execution control process described later, and proceeds to step 4700. On the other hand, if No in step 4291, in other words, the state related to AT is a state in which the number of AT games (sometimes referred to as the number of remaining AT games) can be added (AT counter value which is the number of games in which push order navigation can be executed). Is a state larger than 0 and the AT counter value can be added), in step 6300, the CPU MC of the main control board M executes an execution process for adding the number of winning games, which will be described later. In step 4291, a state in which the lottery for adding the number of AT games is executed based on the state related to AT (“AT preparing”, “AT in BB state”, or “AT in BB internal game”, or “AT in BB internal game”, or “AT in progress”. It may be determined whether or not it is in any of the "AT in progress" states. It is also possible to execute a lottery using different lottery tables depending on the state related to AT. Next, in step 4292, the CPU MC of the main control board M subtracts 1 from the counter value of the AT counter M60. By this process, the number of remaining AT games is subtracted.

Next, in step 4700, the CPU MC of the main control board M executes the RT state transition control process described later. Next, in step 4750, the CPU MC of the main control board M executes the AT state transition control process described later. Next, in step 4293, the CPUMC of the main control board M executes a game end process (for example, clearing the number of bets, transition process of the game state, etc.), and shifts to the next process (process of step 4202).

Next, FIG. 30 is a flowchart of the lever-time AT lottery execution control process according to the subroutine of step 4400 in the present embodiment. First, in step 4404, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the current state related to the AT is a normal BB state. In the case of Yes in step 4404, in other words, when the current state related to AT is either "normal game state" or "normal BB internal medium game", in step 4406, the CPUMC of the main control board M is concerned. The condition device related to the game is a condition device number in which a lottery for acquiring the right to shift to the "AT in progress state" is executed at the time of establishment in the normal lever-time AT lottery combination (during non-BB, in this example, a strong watermelon (Condition device number 49), weak watermelon (conditional device number 48), strong chance (conditional device number 50), weak cherry (conditional device number 15), strong cherry (conditional device number 16)) judge. In the case of Yes in step 4406, in step 4408, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the current lottery state is the “high probability state”. In this embodiment, a plurality of lottery states are provided even in the state related to the same AT, and if the lottery states are different, the AT winning rate (the winning rate of the lottery for acquiring the right to shift to the AT state) is different. Will be done. In this embodiment, the lottery state is provided only in the "normal game state" (there is no problem even if a plurality of lottery states are provided in other AT-related states).

In the case of Yes in step 4408, in step 4410, the CPUMC of the main control board M refers to the high-probability AT lottery table (the probability of winning the AT lottery is higher than that of the low-probability AT lottery table described later). The AT transition lottery is executed with the lottery probability based on the condition device number related to the game, and the process proceeds to step 4414. On the other hand, in the case of No in step 4408, in other words, when the current lottery state is the "low probability state", in step 4412, the CPUMC of the main control board M uses the low probability AT lottery table (the above-mentioned high probability AT lottery). The probability of winning the AT lottery is lower than that of the table), the AT transition lottery is executed with the lottery probability based on the conditional device number related to the game, and the process proceeds to step 4414. Next, in step 4414, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the executed AT lottery has been won. In the case of Yes in step 4414, in step 4418, the CPUMC of the main control board M is an AT winning flag (a flag that is turned on when the AT lottery is won, and when it is turned on, it is in the "AT precursor state" and "AT is being prepared." Turn on "state" and "transition to AT in progress"), and shift to the next process (process in step 4450).

Further, in the case of No in step 4404, in other words, when the current state related to AT is the "normal BB state", in step 4416, the CPUMC of the main control board M has the condition device number related to the game when the BB lever is used. Is the AT lottery combination (in this example, the conditional device number (not shown) corresponding to Seven) in which the lottery for acquiring the right to shift to the AT state at the time of establishment is executed in the BB? Judge whether or not. If Yes in step 4416, the process proceeds to step 4418 to turn on the AT winning flag, and if No, the process proceeds to the next process (process in step 4450) (AT winning flag is not turned on). Even if No in step 4406 or 4414, the process proceeds to the next process (process in step 4450).

Here, the lower part of the figure is a high-probability AT lottery table and a low-probability AT lottery table. As shown in the figure, in the present embodiment, the AT winning rate is configured to differ depending on the lottery state, and the "high probability state" is relative to the AT transition lottery rather than the "low probability state". It is easier to win. Further, there is no problem even if the winning probability of the AT transition lottery for each conditional device number is changed. Further, in the present embodiment, the AT transition lottery winning probability is configured to be determined by the type of the condition device number and the lottery state, but the present invention is not limited to this, and may differ depending on, for example, a set value. For example, when the set value is configured to have 6 stages of 1 to 6, setting 1 is the most difficult to win the AT transition lottery, and setting 6 is the easiest to win the AT transition lottery. It may be configured to be. Similarly, in the lottery for adding the number of AT games, which will be described later, setting 1 is the most difficult to win in the lottery for adding the number of AT games (the expected value for adding the number of AT games is low), and setting 6 is the lottery for adding the number of AT games. It may be configured to be the easiest to win (the expected value to add the number of AT games is high). Further, as another example in which the winning rate of the AT transition lottery and the AT game number addition lottery differs depending on the set value, the odd number set values, setting 1, setting 3, and setting 5, are relatively the number of AT games. It is easy to win the additional lottery (the expected value to add the number of AT games is high), and it is configured so that it is relatively difficult to win the AT transition lottery. It is relatively difficult to win the lottery with the number of AT games added (the expected value for adding the number of AT games is low), and it may be configured so that it is relatively easy to win the AT transition lottery. The game will be different depending on whether the value is odd or even, and the game will be more interesting.

Next, FIG. 31 is a flowchart of the condition device number management process according to the subroutine of step 4450 of FIG. 28 in the present embodiment. First, in step 4452, the CPUMC of the main control board M has a state related to AT (“AT preparing”, “AT in progress”, “AT in BB internal game”, and “AT in progress”. It is determined whether or not it is a state related to any AT of "BB state during AT"). In this example, displaying the reel stop order, which is the most profitable for the player, on the push order display device D270 and the effect display device SG is referred to as push order navigation. In the case of Yes in step 4452, in step 4454, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the condition device related to the game is a combination with a push order (a condition device in which the winning combination differs depending on the push order). To do. In the case of Yes in step 4454, in step 4456, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines that the condition device related to the game is an additional combination at the time of winning {stop display symbol combination (or stop switch stop operation order) in the AT game. The number is a conditional device number to which the number can be added. In this example, the push order cherry ("re-game-G1 (conditional device number 17)", "re-game-G2 (conditional device number 18)" and "re-game-G3". (Condition device number 19) ”) or push order chance (“Re-game-H1 (condition device number 20)”, “Re-game-H2 (condition device number 21)” and “Re-game-H3 (condition device)” It is determined whether or not the number 22) ”)}. Here, in the present embodiment, in the case where the number of AT games can be added (increased) to the AT, the condition device number including the push order cherry (for example, "re-game-G1 (condition device number 17)). Even if ") is won, it is not certain that the lottery for adding the number of AT games will be executed, and the push order cherry (the cherry symbol is stopped and displayed on the left reel) is stopped and displayed. ), And the push order cherry is stopped and displayed (or it may be judged by the stop operation order of the stop switch), so that it is certain that the lottery for adding the number of AT games will be executed. The push order hitting game, which is an effect of inciting whether or not the reels can be stopped in the push order in which the push order cherry is stopped and displayed, is executed. Therefore, when the push order cherry is won, the push order in which the push order cherry is stopped and displayed is not notified. For example, the push order display device D270 displays "= 0", and the effect display device is based on the fact that the sub control board S receives a predetermined instruction number (for example, AX) transmitted from the main control board M. In SG, a display such as "? ・? ・?" Is displayed so that the player can understand that the game is a push order game. The number of AT games is the number of games for which push order navigation is guaranteed (the number of games that can be played during AT) (profit given to the player by the push order (for example,). If the condition device number does not differ (the number of payouts, the transition of the RT state, the winning probability of the AT lottery), the push order navigation does not have to occur).

In the case of Yes in step 4456, in step 4458, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines an instruction number (also referred to as a push order number) in the game based on the condition device number of the game, and stores the instruction number. It is stored in the RAM address for the purpose (an address different from the RAM address for displaying the push order navigation). The instruction number is information related to the pressing order, and in this example, the main control board M is determined and transmitted to the sub control board S (details will be described later). Further, the sub-control board S can display the push order navigation on the effect display device SG by receiving the instruction number. The instruction number is determined even when the push order navigation is not executed (the instruction number becomes the initial value based on clearing the instruction number in S1462) (for example, when the instruction number is "A0"). It is configured so that there is no push order navigation). When executing the push order guessing game, S1462 determines a predetermined instruction number (for example, AX) dedicated to the push order guessing game. Next, in step 4460, the CPUMC of the main control board M executes the push order navigation display on the push order display device D270 based on the determined instruction number, and proceeds to step 4466. On the other hand, if No in step 4452, step 4454 or step 4456, in step 4462, the CPUMC of the main control board M presses the instruction number related to the game to indicate that the order navigation is not executed (in this example, the instruction number). It is determined (“A0”) (the instruction number becomes the initial value based on clearing the instruction number), and the process proceeds to step 4466.

Next, in step 4466, the CPU MC of the main control board M sets (for example, sets in the register area) a command (command to the sub control board S side) related to the instruction number determined in step 4458 or step 4462. .. Next, in step 4468, the CPUMC of the main control board M executes mask processing on the condition device number of the game, and stores the masked information in a predetermined address of the RAM. Here, when the information related to the conditional device number related to the game is transmitted to the sub-control board S side, if the information related to the conditional device number is recognized by an illegal act, the profit related to the game is high. The push order (reel stop order) will be recognized. Therefore, in this example, the sub-control board S is executed after performing mask processing {processing for keeping information related to the conditional device number (particularly information related to the pressing order) confidential} on the information related to the conditional device number related to the game. By configuring it to send to, it is configured so that the highly profitable push order cannot be recognized. As a method of mask processing in the present embodiment, a plurality of conditional device numbers (conditional device numbers having a similar role are preferable, and for example, a symbol combination that becomes a promotion replay combination depending on the pressing order is stopped and displayed. A plurality of possible condition device numbers) are set as one effect group number (for example, condition device numbers 2 to 6 are set as effect group 2), and the effect group number is transmitted to the sub-control board S side. .. The method of mask processing is not limited to this, and for example, the condition device number after mask processing is newly provided after the provided condition device number (1 to 51 in this example). You may. Further, even in such a case, it is desirable to configure the condition device number after the mask processing to be provided by using a plurality of the existing condition device numbers as one condition device number, such as the effect group number (). For example, the condition device numbers 2 to 6 are set to the condition device number 54 which is the condition device number after the mask processing). If it is determined that the game is to notify the operation information (push order navigation) based on the state related to AT on the main control board M, the condition device number is transmitted to the sub control board S side and the operation information is transmitted. In a game that does not notify, the effect group number may be transmitted to the sub-control board S side.

Next, in step 4470, the CPUMC of the main control board M sets a command (command to the sub control board S side) related to the effect group number after executing the mask processing (for example, sets in the register area). To do. Next, in step 4472, the CPUMC of the main control board M receives a command (to the sub-control board S side) related to the bonus condition device number (whether or not the bonus is won can be recognized by the sub-control board S side). (Command) is set (for example, set in the register area), and the process proceeds to the next process (process in step 4259). In this example, what is referred to only as the conditional device number is the conditional device number of the small winning combination / replaying combination, which is different from the conditional device number of the bonus. In addition, as shown in the lower part of the figure, as a display example of the push order navigation, in the case of "AT preparation", (1) when the fall replay combination is included → the push order that does not become the fall replay combination Navi, (2) When the promoted re-game combination is included → Navi the push order where the promoted re-game combination will be stopped and displayed, (3) When the push order cherry is included → Push order which is the push order cherry Navi, (4) In the case of bell (3 cards / 7 cards) → The push order with the largest number of payouts is Navi, etc. In the case of "AT in progress", (1) ) When the fall re-game combination is included → Navigating the push order in which the fall re-game combination is not stopped and displayed, (2) When the promotion re-game combination is included → Navigating the push order in which the promoted re-game combination is stopped and displayed. , (3) When the push order cherry is included → Navigating the push order which becomes the push order cherry, (4) In the case of bell (3 pieces / 7 pieces) → Navigating the push order with the largest number of payouts, etc. It is configured as follows.

Next, FIG. 32 shows an example of a list of production group numbers of the rotating drum type game machine P according to the present embodiment. As described above, when the information related to the condition device number determined by the main control board M is transmitted to the sub control board S, the mask processing is executed to determine the effect group number, and the effect group number is used as the sub control board. It is configured to transmit to S. In addition, the production group number is a conditional device number, and the winning combination (for example, a replaying role including a promoted replaying role, a replaying role including a falling replaying role, a push order bell, etc.) The condition device numbers related to the above are grouped and the numbers are assigned. It is configured to execute mask processing {processing to keep information related to the condition device number (particularly information related to the pressing order) confidential} on the information related to the condition device number related to the game and then transmit it to the sub-control board S. This prevents a situation in which the information related to the conditional device number is recognized due to an illegal act and the pushing order (reel stop order) that is highly profitable related to the game is recognized. Hereinafter, the process until the effect group number is transmitted to the sub-control board S side will be described in detail.

The processing on the main control board M side related to the effect group number is as follows: (1) The winning / replay winning number stored in the RAM related to the game is stored in the first register (for example, the A register). The winning / replay winning number corresponds to the conditional device number shown in FIG. 20 in this embodiment. Further, the winning number of the bonus combination when the bonus combination is won is stored in another storage area of the RAM. (2) The start address of the "effect group number designation table" in which the effect group number stored in the ROM is stored is stored in a second register (for example, the HL register). It is a table that defines which production group number is specified corresponding to the re-game winning number, and when the start address is the X address, the production group number "0" corresponding to the winning / re-game winning number 0 is used for the X address. , And the (X + 1) address is the production group number "1" corresponding to the winning / replay winning number 1, and the (X + 2) address is the production group number corresponding to the winning / replay winning number 2. "2" is defined, the production group number "2" corresponding to the winning / replay winning number 3 is defined in the (X + 3) address, and the production corresponding to the winning / replay winning number n is defined in the (X + n) address. Group number "Y" is defined}. (3) The effect group number is acquired from the effect group number designation table by arithmetic processing (specifically, addition process of the first register and the second register) by the first register and the second register. In other words, the winning / replay winning number is used as an offset value, and the effect group number is acquired from the effect group number designation table in the register. (The acquired effect group number may be stored in a predetermined storage area of the RAM.) (4) The effect group number is stored (stored) in a buffer (RAM) for transmitting to the sub-control board S.

When such processing is performed uniformly, mask processing is performed regardless of the game state (specifically, "AT in progress state", "normal game state", etc.) on the main control board M side and the push order number. Therefore, the number of judgment limbs is reduced, and the program of the main control board M can be simplified.

As a specific example of the correspondence between the effect group number and the condition device number, for example, when the condition device number is 0 (loss), the effect group number is 0, and the condition device number is 1 (replay-A) ( If the production group number is 1 and the condition device number is 2 to 6 (replay-B1 to replay-B5) (RT transition replay is won), the production group number is 2 and the condition device is the condition device. In the case of numbers 7 to 11 (re-game-C1 to re-game-C5) (RT transition replay is won), the production group number is 3 and the condition device numbers 12 to 14 (re-game-D1 to re-game-D3). In the case (RT transition replay wins), the production group number is 4, and in the case of condition device number 15 (replay-E) (weak cherry wins), the production group number is 5, condition device number 16 (replay-E). In the case of F) (strong cherry wins), the production group number is 6, and in the case of condition device number 17 (replay-G1) (push order cherry wins), the production group number is 7, and the condition device number 18 (removal game-G1). In the case of replay-G2) (push order cherry wins), the production group number is 8, and in the case of condition device number 19 (replay-G3) (push order cherry wins), the production group number is 9, condition. In the case of device number 20 (replay-H1) (push order chance wins), the production group number is 10, and in the case of condition device number 21 (replay-H2) (push order chance wins), the effect is produced. When the group number is 11 and the condition device number 22 (replay-H3) (the push order chance is won), when the production group number is 12 and the condition device numbers 23 to 28 (winning-A1 to winning-A6) In the case of (push order bell wins), the production group number is 13, and in the case of condition device numbers 29 to 34 (winning-B1-winning-B6) (push order bell wins), the production group number is 14, the condition device number. In the case of 35-40 (winning-C1-winning-C6) (pushing order bell wins), the production group number is 15, and in the case of condition device number 41 (winning-D) (common bell wins), the production group In the case of number 16 and conditional device numbers 42 to 47 (winning-E1 to winning-E6) (three cards that can stop a specific symbol are won), the production group number is 17, and the conditional device number 48 (winning-F). ) (Weak watermelon wins), the production group number is 18, and the condition device number 49 (winning-G) (strong watermelon wins), the production group number is 19, and the condition device number 50 (winning-H). ) (The strongest chance is won), the production group number is 20, the condition device number 51 In the case of (winning-I) (the special role in the RB is won), the production group number is 21. In addition, in the specification for executing the above-mentioned push order guessing game (a game executed when any one of the conditional device numbers 17 to 22 is won), at least one of the conditional device numbers 17 to 22 is won. For concealment, for example, it is desirable to set the condition device numbers 17 to 19 to the same effect group number and the condition device numbers 20 to 22 to the same effect group number.

Next, FIG. 33 is a flowchart of the lever-time game number addition execution process according to the subroutine of step 4500 of FIG. 28 in the present embodiment. First, in step 4502, the CPUMC of the main control board M adds a conditional device number related to the game at the time of winning (regardless of whether or not a prize is won, a conditional device capable of adding the remaining number of AT games by winning. It is a number, and in this example, a weak watermelon (conditional device number 48), a strong watermelon (conditional device number 49), a weak cherry (conditional device number 15), a strong cherry (conditional device number 16), and a strong chance eye (conditional device number 16). It is determined whether or not the number is 50) and the bell (conditional device numbers 23 to 28)). In the case of Yes in step 4502, in step 4508, the CPUMC of the main control board M refers to the number of additional games lottery table at the time of winning (for example, the lottery table provided in the ROM area), and determines the number of additional AT games. Determine (for example, in the lottery table shown in the margin, it is determined whether or not the latched random number value falls within the range). It should be noted that determining the number of AT addition games is also referred to as executing an AT addition lottery. Next, in step 4510, the CPUMC of the main control board M adds the determined number of AT additional games to the counter value of the AT counter M60, sets the AT counter value after the addition to the AT counter M60, and then sets the AT counter value to the AT counter M60. The process proceeds to the process (process of step 4550). Even if No in step 4502, the process proceeds to the next process (process in step 4550).

Here, the lottery table shown in the margin of the figure is an example of a lottery table for the number of additional games at the time of winning, and in the present embodiment, the states related to the AT in which the push order navigation is executed (“AT in preparation”, “AT”. If the additional winning combination at the time of winning is won in "Medium state", "Internal BB state during AT", "BB state during AT"), the number of AT addition games is determined by lottery from "0" to "300". , The determined value is added to the counter value of the AT counter M60. If "0" is determined, the number of remaining AT games will not increase.

In addition, the average value (expected value) of the number of AT additional games when the additional role is won at the time of winning is a value as shown in the figure, and as a specific calculation method, the winning combination is a weak watermelon. In the case, {number of games (900) x number of AT additional games (0) + number of games (50) x number of AT additional games (10) + number of games (50) x number of AT additional games (30) + number of games ( 24) × number of AT additional games (100)} / total number of placements (1024) = 4.3 (games).

Next, if the winning combination is a strong watermelon, {number of placements (500) x number of AT additional games (0) + number of placements (200) x number of AT addition games (50) + number of placements (300) x AT It can be calculated as the number of additional games (100) + the number of placements (24) × the number of additional games of AT (300)} / the total number of additions (1024) = 46.1 (games).

Next, if the winning combination is a weak cherry, {number of placements (800) x number of AT additional games (0) + number of placements (100) x number of AT addition games (10) + number of placements (100) x AT It can be calculated as follows: number of additional games (30) + number of placements (24) × number of additional games of AT (100)} / total number of additions (1024) = 6.3 (games).

Next, if the winning combination is a strong cherry, {number of placements (300) x number of AT additional games (0) + number of placements (300) x number of AT addition games (30) + number of placements (400) x AT It can be calculated as follows: number of additional games (50) + number of placements (24) × number of additional games of AT (300)} / total number of additions (1024) = 35.4 (games).

Next, if the winning combination is a strong chance, {number of placements (300) x number of AT additional games (30) + number of placements (500) x number of AT addition games (50) + number of placements (224) x It can be calculated as follows: number of AT added games (200)} / total number of placements (1024) = 77.0 (games).

Next, if the winning combination is a bell (7-card combination), {number of placements (1024) x number of AT additional games (0) + number of placements (1) x number of AT addition games (200)} / number of placements Can be calculated as the total number of (1024) = 0.2 (game).

Next, FIG. 34 is a flowchart of the reel rotation start preparation process according to the subroutine of step 4550 of FIG. 28 in the present embodiment. First, in step 4552, the CPU MC of the main control board M determines whether or not the timer value of the game interval minimum time timer M70 (subtraction timer) is 0. Here, the game interval minimum time timer M70 is a time (4.1 seconds in this example) that should be secured from a certain game start timing (reel rotation start timing) to the next game start timing (reel rotation start timing). It is a timer to measure. In the case of Yes in step 4552, in step 4554, the CPU MC of the main control board M starts by newly setting the minimum time (4.1 seconds in this example) to the timer value of the game interval minimum time timer M70. Next, in step 4556, the CPU MC of the main control board M clears the information related to the reel stop order and the information related to the push order related to the finished game. Next, in step 4558, the CPU MC of the main control board M clears the information related to the reel stop related to the finished game and the pull-in point creation request. Next, in step 4560, the CPU MC of the main control board M initializes the symbol stop position data related to the finished game. Next, in step 4562, the CPU MC of the main control board M sets an output request during reel rotation start standby related to the game. Next, in step 4564, the CPU MC of the main control board M sets a reel control command related to the game. In other words, by the processing of step 4562 and step 4564, a command for indicating that the reel starts rotating can be transmitted to the sub-control board S. Next, in step 4566, the CPUMC of the main control board M updates the reel drive state stored in the RAM area from the reel stop state to the reel rotation start standby state, and moves to the next process (process of step 4260). Transition.

Next, FIG. 35 is a flowchart of the stop AT lottery execution control process according to the subroutine of step 4800 of FIG. 29 in the present embodiment. First, in step 4802, the CPUMC of the main control board M is a condition device in which the condition device related to the game is an AT lottery when stopped (a condition device in which a lottery for acquiring the right to shift to the "AT in progress state" by winning a prize is executed. Yes, in this example, it is determined whether or not it is a push order cherry). In the case of Yes in step 4802, in step 4803, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the AT lottery combination at the time of stop has won as the winning combination related to the game (for example, the push order cherry is stopped and displayed). Even if the condition device to be obtained is satisfied, the push order cherry may or may not be stopped depending on the push order). In the case of Yes in step 4803, in step 4812, the CPUMC of the main control board M is an AT winning flag (a flag that is turned on when the AT lottery is won, and when it is turned on, it is in the "AT precursor state" and the "AT preparation state". And "Transition to AT in progress") are turned on, and the process proceeds to the next process (process in step 4700). Even if No in step 4802 or step 4803, the process proceeds to the next process (process in step 4700).

Next, FIG. 36 is a flowchart of the execution process for adding the number of winning games according to the subroutine of step 6300 of FIG. 29 in the present embodiment. First, in step 6302, the CPUMC of the main control board M is a condition device in which the condition device related to the game is an additional combination at the time of winning (a condition device capable of adding the number of remaining AT games by winning, and in this example, the push order cherry. = Conditional device numbers 17 to 19 and push order chance eyes = Conditional device numbers 20 to 22). In the case of Yes in step 6302, in step 6306, the CPUMC of the main control board M received a prize at the time of winning {the push order cherry was pushed correctly (one of the replay 07 was stopped and displayed) or the push order. It is determined whether or not the correct answer is given in the order of pressing the chance eyes (one of the replay 09 is stopped and displayed)}. As a judgment method, a push order number for judgment is separately determined, the determined push order number is stored in the RAM, and the push order in which the stop switch is actually operated is compared with the determined push order number. It is also possible to adopt a method of determining the pressing order by specifying the pressing order from the condition device number. In the case of Yes in step 6306, in step 6309, the CPUMC of the main control board M refers to the number of additional games added at the time of winning and determines the number of added AT games (for example, latched in the lottery table shown in the margin). Determine which range the random value falls within). Next, in step 6310, the CPUMC of the main control board M adds the determined number of AT addition games to the counter value of the AT counter M60, sets the AT counter value after the addition to the AT counter M60, and then sets the AT counter value to the AT counter M60. Processing (moving to step 4292). In addition, even when No in step 6302 or step 6306, the next process (shift to step 4292).

Here, the lottery table shown in the margin of the figure is an example of a lottery table for the number of additional games at the time of winning, and as shown in the figure, a state related to AT in which push order navigation is executed (“AT in preparation”, If you win the AT addition lottery in "AT in progress", "AT in BB internal state", "AT in BB state"), the number of AT addition games will be determined by lottery from "5" to "300". Then, the determined value is added to the counter value of the AT counter M60.

In addition, the average value (expected value) of the number of AT additional games when winning the additional role at the time of winning is a value as shown in the figure, and as a specific calculation method, the winning combination is a push order cherry. In some cases, {number of games (900) x number of AT additional games (50) + number of games (100) x number of AT additional games (100) + number of games (24) x number of AT additional games (300)} / It can be calculated as the total number of numbers (1024) = 60.7 (game).

If the winning combination is the push order chance, {number of placements (1020) x number of AT additional games (0) + number of placements (4) x number of AT addition games (100) / total number of placements (1024) ) = 5.4 (game).

Further, as shown in FIGS. 33 and 36, the AT addition lottery in the present embodiment is configured to be determined based on the winning conditional device number, and if the RT states are different, the conditional device lottery is performed. The probabilities will be different, and as a result, the average value of the number of AT added games per game will be different. For example, the probability of winning the push order chance (condition device numbers 20 to 22) when the RT state is "RT3" is 6600/65536, and the average number of AT additional games when the push order chance is won. Since the value is 5.4 games, the average value of the number of AT added games per game according to the push order chance is 6600/65536 × 5.4 games = 0.54 games. On the other hand, the probability of winning the push order chance (condition device numbers 20 to 22) when the RT state is "RT1" is 0/65536, and the average number of AT additional games when the push order chance is won. Since the value is 5.4 games, the average value of the AT addition games per game by the push order chance is 0/65536 × 5.4 games = 0 games. As such, the difference in the RT state causes the average value of the number of AT added games per game to differ. In addition, the average value of the number of AT additional games per game for other condition devices capable of executing the AT game number additional lottery is also calculated in the same manner, and the average value of the number of AT additional games per game is calculated by adding up. Can be calculated. As described above, in the present embodiment, regardless of the RT state, the same AT addition game number lottery table (AT addition game number lottery table at the time of winning, AT addition game number lottery table at the time of winning) is referred to and the AT addition lottery is performed. However, the average value of the number of AT added games per game is different due to the difference in the winning rate of the conditional device depending on the RT state. In this way, in a game machine where the AT addition lottery is more advantageous in "RT3" than in "RT1", if the game proceeds according to the push order navigation in the "AT in progress state", it is possible to stay in "RT3". , When the player intentionally stops the reels in a push order different from the push order navigation to shift to "RT1", the AT addition lottery is treated coldly. Similarly, for small wins that do not change depending on the RT state, by using the same AT addition game number lottery table, the average value (expected value) of the same AT addition games can be obtained regardless of the RT state. You can run a lottery. For example, the probability of winning a strong watermelon (condition device number 48) when the RT state in the "AT in progress state", "AT preparation in progress", or "AT return state" is "RT3" is 160/65536. There is, since the average value of the number of AT additional games when the strong watermelon is won is 46.1 games, the average value of the number of AT additional games per game by the strong watermelon is 160/65536 × 46.1 games = It will be 0.11 games. On the other hand, the probability of winning the strong watermelon (condition device number 48) when the RT state is "RT1" is 160/65536, and the average value of the number of AT additional games when the strong watermelon is won is 46.1 games. Therefore, the average value of the number of AT added games per game by strong watermelon is 160/65536 × 46.1 games = 0.11 games. As such, for small wins that do not change depending on the RT state, by using the same AT addition game number lottery table, the average value (expected value) of the same AT addition games can be obtained regardless of the RT state. The lottery can be executed.

In the AT transition lottery, as in the AT addition lottery, the same AT lottery table is referred to regardless of the RT state based on the condition device number, and the appearance rate of the condition device is different depending on the RT state. The winning rate of the transition lottery may be different (for example, the AT transition lottery may be performed with reference to the same AT lottery table depending on the condition device having a different winning probability depending on the RT state such as the condition device numbers 15 to 22. Execute).

Next, FIG. 37 is a flowchart of the RT state transition control process according to the subroutine of step 4700 of FIG. 29 in the present embodiment. First, in step 4702, the CPU MC of the main control board M determines whether or not the RT state transition enable condition is satisfied in the game. Here, in the present embodiment, the RT state transitionable condition is configured to be satisfied by stopping a specific symbol, stopping a predetermined symbol based on the stop display of a specific replaying combination, and winning / starting / ending the BB. ing. In the case of Yes in step 4702, in step 4704, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the RT state can be shifted and the RT state after the next game based on the satisfied RT state shiftable condition, and the next process (step 4750). Process). Even if No in step 4702, the process proceeds to the next process (process in step 4750). In this embodiment, the RT state transition control process is executed after all reels are stopped, but when shifting to "RT4", the shift timing may be shifted when the lever is turned on. The timing for shifting the RT state (memorizing the RT number in the RAM) can be appropriately determined.

Next, FIG. 38 is an RT state transition diagram 1 in the present embodiment. In the present embodiment, there are six RT states of "RT0" to "RT5", and the RT state shifts when the conditions shown by the arrows in the figure are satisfied. As a specific example of transition to the RT state, when the RT state is "RT0", the condition device of "winning-E3 (three-card combination)" is won, and the stop button D40 is "left → middle → right". If you stop in the order of (2nd and 3rd stops are optional), there is a 3/4 chance that the specific symbol {the maximum number of payouts (expected value) will be the maximum number of payouts (expected value) when the 3 cards are won. If you stop in the order of pressing other than), you can win a prize}, and the game shifts to "RT1". On the other hand, there is a 1/4 chance that "Bell Blank B Replay A" will stop on the effective line and a 3-card combination will win, and the push order will be the maximum payout number (expected value) (for example, "Medium". → When the stop button D40 is operated with “left → right”), the RT state is maintained at “RT0”. When the RT state is "RT1" and the condition device of "replay-B3" is won, the stop button D40 is operated to stop the reels in the order of "middle → left → right" (for example, the reel M50 is On the effective line, "sheep / replay A / watermelon A" is stopped), the symbol combination that becomes "replay 05" is stopped and displayed, and the process shifts to "RT2". Next, when the RT state is "RT2", the condition device of "re-game-C5" is won, and the player presses the stop button D40 "right-> left-> middle" (second and third stops are optional). When stopped in order (for example, reel M50 stops on the effective line, "sheep / replay A / replay B" stops), the symbol combination that becomes "replay 06" is stopped and displayed, and the RT state shifts to "RT3". To do. On the other hand, when the RT state is "RT3" or "RT2", for example, when the condition device of "re-game C-3" is won and the player operates the stop button D40 "right-> left-> middle" in this order ( For example, on the reel M50, "Bell Replay A. Bell" is stopped) and the symbol combination "Replay 03" is stopped and displayed on the effective line, and the RT state shifts to "RT1". Similarly, when the RT state is "RT3" or "RT2", the condition device of "winning-E3", which is a three-card combination, is won, and the stop button D40 is "left → middle → right" (second, third). If you stop in the order of (stopping is optional), there is a 3/4 chance of pushing other than the specific symbol {the maximum number of payouts (expected value) when winning the 3-card combination (the middle reel is the first stop). If you stop in order, you can win a prize}, and when it stops, it shifts to "RT1". On the other hand, there is a 1/4 chance that "Bell Blank B Replay A" will stop on the effective line and a 3-card combination will win, and the push order will be the maximum payout number (expected value) (for example, "Medium". → Left → Right ”) When the stop button D40 is operated, the RT state is maintained at“ RT2 ”or“ RT3 ”. Here, the condition device of "winning-G (strong watermelon)" in which the RT states are "RT0", "RT1", "RT2" and "RT3" and "Type 1 BB01" (BB) is duplicated. If you win, if you do not win the BB in the BB establishment game (winning when "sheep, sheep, sheep" stops on the valid line) (if you win a strong watermelon, for example, the valid line In "Watermelon B / Replay A / Replay A" is stopped), the RT state shifts to "RT4". It should be noted that the shift to "RT4" may be made based on the establishment of BB by the winning combination lottery means. If the BB is won (the "sheep / sheep / sheep" is stopped on the effective line) by operating the stop button D40 in the case of "RT4", the process shifts to "RT5". On the other hand, if the BB is won in the BB establishment game (“sheep / sheep / sheep” is stopped on the valid line), the RT state shifts to “RT4” in one game, and “RT4” to “RT5”. Will be transferred to. In addition, in the case of winning a prize in the BB establishment game (“sheep / sheep / sheep” is stopped on the valid line), the game may be directly shifted to “RT5” without going through “RT4”. Next, after the end of BB, the RT state shifts from "RT5" to "RT0". Although not shown, after the RAM clear is executed due to the setting change process when the power is turned off and the power is restored normally, the RT number is restored before the RAM is cleared (the address for storing the RT number is set at the time of RAM clear). It may not be included in the address range to be cleared), or it may be set to "RT0". It should be noted that the power is turned off under a specific RT state (for example, "RT5"), and after the RAM clear is executed due to the setting change processing when the power is turned off and the power is restored normally, it is set to "RT0". Is also good. In addition, "RT3" is in the RT state with the highest probability of winning the re-game combination. The re-game 03 and the re-game 04 are re-game roles that can cause the RT state to fall (shift to the RT state that is disadvantageous to the player), and the re-game 05 and the re-game 06 promote the RT state (advantageous to the player). It is a re-gaming combination that can be shifted to the RT state), and the re-gaming 01 and the re-gaming 02 are re-gaming roles that do not trigger the transition to the RT state. In addition, when the push order navigation occurs, when the reels are stopped in a push order different from the push order navigation, the RT state falls when the symbol combination that becomes the replay 03 or the replay 04 is stopped and displayed (for example). , "RT3" shifts to "RT1"), but when the symbol combination that becomes re-game 01 or re-game 02 is stopped and displayed, the RT state does not fall (for example, "RT3" is maintained. ) Will be. In the present embodiment, in the game in which any of the condition device numbers 42 to 47 is determined, the game is operated in a predetermined operation order (see FIG. 19) and is operated at a specific operation timing. As a result, a specific symbol combination can be stopped and displayed, but in a game in which any of the condition device numbers 42 to 47 is determined, a predetermined predetermined value is set regardless of the stop button operation timing. It may be configured so that a specific symbol combination can be stopped and displayed when operated in the operation order (see FIG. 20). Further, in the game in which any of the condition device numbers 23 to 40 is determined, the one-card combination wins in the operation order other than the operation order in which the seven-card combination wins, but any one of the one-card combinations The symbol combination corresponding to (for example, the bell spilling role) may be defined as a specific symbol combination (which is an RT transition condition). Further, in a game in which any of the condition device numbers 23 to 40 is determined, a prize may not be won (missed) depending on the operation timing of the stop button. Even if the reels are stopped in a push order different from the most profitable push order, if the small winning combination to be paid out is not won (missed), the RT state is changed ( For example, it may be configured to shift from "RT0" to "RT1").

Next, FIG. 39 is a flowchart of the AT state transition control process according to the subroutine of step 4750 of FIG. 29 in the present embodiment. First, in step 4752, the CPU MC of the main control board M determines whether or not the AT state transitionable condition is satisfied in the game. It should be noted that the AT-related states of the "high probability state" and the "low probability state", which are the lottery states, are both "normal game states". In the case of Yes in step 4752, in step 4754, the CPUMC of the main control board M turns off the AT winning flag (for example, when shifting from the “AT precursor state” to the “AT in progress state”, the “normal game state”. It is configured to turn off the AT winning flag when shifting from "AT precursor state" or from "normal BB state" to "AT preparation state"). Next, in step 4756, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the AT state can be changed and the state related to the AT after the next game, based on the satisfied AT state transitionable condition and the state related to the current AT. Next, in step 4758, the CPU MC of the main control board M determines whether or not the "AT in progress state" is newly determined as the state related to AT. In the present embodiment, only at the so-called first hit of AT, when the state related to AT shifts like "AT precursor state-> AT preparation-> AT in progress state", step 4758 is set to Yes, and "AT in progress state". If the player wins the BB at, and then shifts to the "AT in progress state" via "AT preparation", the result is set to No in step 4758 (even in such a case, "AT" is set as Yes. The initial number of games may be set in the AT counter each time the game shifts to the "medium state"). In the case of Yes in step 4758, in step 4760, the CPUMC of the main control board M sets the AT initial game number (50 in this example) in the AT counter M60, triggered by the new transition to the AT in-progress state. , Step 4762. If No is set in step 4752 or step 4758, the process proceeds to step 4762.

Next, in step 4762, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the current lottery state is the “low probability state”. In the case of Yes in step 4762, in step 4764, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines that the condition device related to the game is a state promotion combination (a small probability state that can be changed from a "low probability state" to a "high probability state" by winning. It is a role, and in this example, it is determined whether or not it is a weak watermelon, a strong watermelon, or a strong chance eye). In the case of Yes in step 4764, in step 4766, the CPUMC of the main control board M refers to the high-probability state transition lottery table and executes the high-probability state transition lottery to win based on the conditional device number related to the game. Here, the upper right corner of the figure is a high-probability state transition lottery table, and in this embodiment, the lottery state shifts from "low-probability state" to "high-probability state" for weak watermelon, strong watermelon, or strong chance. The winning rate for weak watermelons is 1/10, the winning rate for strong watermelons is 1/2, and the winning rate for strong chances is 1/1, which is high depending on the condition device. The winning rate of the probability state transition lottery is different. Next, in step 4768, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the high-probability transition lottery has been won (for example, determines whether or not the latched random number value is within the winning range). .. In the case of Yes in step 4768, in step 4770, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines the lottery state after the next game to the “high probability state”, and shifts to the next process (process in step 4293).

If No in step 4762, in step 4772, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the current lottery state is the “high probability state”. In the case of Yes in step 4772, in step 4774, the CPUMC of the main control board M states that the condition device related to the game can shift from a high-probability state to a low-probability state by displaying a winning or stop position. ) Is determined. In the case of Yes in step 4774, in step 4776, the CPUMC of the main control board M executes a low-probability state transition lottery that wins with a predetermined probability (1/7 in this example). Next, in step 4778, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the low-probability transition lottery has been won (for example, determines whether or not the latched random number value is within the winning range). .. In the case of Yes in step 4778, in step 4780, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines the lottery state after the next game to the “low probability state”, and shifts to the next process (process in step 4293). In the present embodiment, the condition for shifting from the "low probability state" to the "high probability state" is not limited to this, and when another winning combination (for example, the condition device number 35 to 40) is won. , Each game may be configured to execute a lottery that shifts from the "high probability state" to the "low probability state" with a predetermined probability (for example, 1/20). Further, in such a configuration, the low-probability state transition lottery is not executed for 10 games after the transition to the "high-probability state" (the stay in the "high-probability state" is guaranteed). After the lapse of the 10 games, a lottery for shifting from the "high probability state" to the "low probability state" may be executed with a predetermined probability (for example, 1/20) in each game. In addition, even if No in step 4764, step 4768, step 4772, step 4774 or step 4778, the process proceeds to the next process (process of step 4292). Further, in the present embodiment, the lottery states of the "low probability state" and the "high probability state" are provided only in the "normal game state" (one of the states related to AT), and other than the "normal game state". In the case of the AT-related state, No is set in step 4762 and step 4772, and the process proceeds to the next process (process in step 4292).

Next, FIG. 40 is an AT state transition diagram 1 in the present embodiment. In the present embodiment, "normal game state", "AT precursor state", "AT preparation", "AT in progress", "normal BB internal game", "normal BB state", "AT in BB internal" There are eight states related to AT, "game" and "BB state during AT", and the state related to AT shifts when the conditions shown by the arrows in the figure are satisfied. For example, it is configured to shift to the "AT precursor state" by winning the AT in the "normal game state" (the AT winning flag is turned on).

In addition, as a specific example of transition of the state related to AT, the condition device of "winning-G (strong watermelon)" in which "type 1 BB01" (BB) is duplicated in "normal game state" is won. , If you do not win a BB in the BB establishment game (winning when "sheep, sheep, sheep" stops on the valid line) {If you win a strong watermelon (for example, "watermelon B" on the valid line) -When "Replay A / Replay A" is stopped), the state related to AT shifts to "normal BB internal medium game". Next, when the BB is won by operating the stop button D40 (“sheep / sheep / sheep” is stopped on the effective line), the state shifts to the “normal BB state”. On the other hand, if the BB is won in the established game of BB ("sheep / sheep / sheep" is stopped on the valid line), the state related to AT changes from "normal game state" to "normal BB internal game" in one game. , And the transition from the "normal BB internal medium game" to the "normal BB state". In addition, when the BB is won in the established game of BB, the state related to AT is changed from the "normal game state" to the "normal BB state" without going through the "normal BB internal medium game". Is also good. In addition, in this "normal BB state", if "Seven" (re-game 13), which will be won at 1/100, is won, it shifts to "AT preparation" after the end of BB, and "normal BB state". If "Seven" (winning combination including re-game 13 (conditional device number is not shown)) is not won during ", the game shifts to the" normal game state "after the end of BB. In this "normal game state", the lottery state of the AT lottery is composed of two stages, a low probability state and a high probability state, and the state promotion combination (for example, condition device numbers 48 to 50) in the low probability state. If the item is won, the high-probability state transition lottery table is referred to, and the high-probability state transition lottery is executed based on the conditional device number. If the high-probability transition lottery is won, the lottery state shifts to the high-probability transition state. On the other hand, when the lottery state of the AT lottery is a high probability state, when the state fall combination (for example, the condition device number 1) is won, the low probability state transition lottery in which the AT lottery is won at 1/7 is executed. If this low-probability transition lottery is won, the lottery state shifts to the low-probability transition state. Next, when the state related to AT is "normal game state" and the lottery state is high probability state and the strong watermelon is won (regardless of whether or not it wins), it is based on the high probability AT lottery table A. If the AT transition lottery that wins 2/3 is performed and the AT lottery is won, the transition to the "AT precursor state" will occur. Next, the state related to AT is "AT precursor state", and the state shifts to "AT preparation" by digesting a predetermined number of games. The method of determining the predetermined number of games that triggers the transition from the "AT precursor state" to the "AT preparation" is a lottery (for example, a lottery from 0 to 32 games) at the time of winning the AT transition lottery by the strong watermelon. Since it is configured to be determined by (determined by) (if the number of games is fixed, only whether or not to shift to "AT preparing" after the fixed number of games has elapsed is focused on, so the lottery is performed. By providing a plurality of patterns of "AT precursor state" games, the player can maintain an interest in whether or not he / she has won the AT transition lottery). In this "AT preparation state", the RT state is staying in "RT3" (provided that the player shifts to "RT3", the player accidentally changes to "RT3" without push order navigation. In the situation where you stayed, if you shift to "AT preparing", you will not be able to shift to "AT in progress"), or you have ignored the push order navigation (for example, "Prize-B3" Is won, and the player operates the stop button D40 in the order of "right → middle → left" even though the push order navigation notifies "middle → left → right"), and the RT state is changed. Although it is not "RT3", it shifts to "AT in progress". The "AT in progress state" shifts to the "normal game state" when the AT counter value becomes 0 (the number of remaining AT games becomes 0). In addition, it is a condition device for "winning-G (strong watermelon)" in which "Type 1 BB01" (BB) is duplicated in "AT precursor state", "AT preparation", or "AT in progress state". If you win and do not win a BB in the BB establishment game (winning when "sheep, sheep, sheep" stops on the valid line) (if you win a strong watermelon, for example, " When "Watermelon B / Replay A / Replay A" is stopped), the state related to AT shifts to "Game in BB inside during AT". Next, when the BB is won by operating the stop button D40 (“sheep / sheep / sheep” is stopped on the effective line), the state shifts to “AT in BB state”. After that, when the BB ends, it shifts to "AT preparation". Further, if the continuation of AT or winning is confirmed after the end of "normal BB state" or "BB state during AT", the state may shift to "AT precursor state".

As described above, in the present embodiment, it is configured to shift to the "AT in progress state" even when the push order navigation is ignored in the "AT preparation", and by configuring in this way, the "AT" is configured. In "Preparing", when the reels are stopped in a stop order different from that of the navigation, even though a push order navigation for displaying the promotion re-game combination that will shift to "RT3" has occurred. However, since it shifts to the "AT in progress state", it is configured so that it cannot continue to stay in "AT in preparation" by ignoring the push order navigation (by continuing to stay in "AT in preparation"). Waiting for the winning of BB, it is prevented from being transferred to the state related to AT, which is more advantageous than the "normal BB state" of "BB state during AT", and becoming a capture factor). It should be noted that the navigation is not limited to the case of shifting to "RT3", for example, even though the push order navigation for stopping and displaying the promotion re-game combination that will shift from "RT1" to "RT2" has occurred. When the reels are stopped in different stop orders, or when the condition device numbers 42 to 47 are won by the winning combination lottery means (the combination of specific symbols (condition for shifting to "RT1") may be stopped and displayed). Even if the reels are stopped in a stop order different from that of the navigation even though the push order navigation has occurred, by shifting to the "AT in progress state", the push order navigation is ignored and "AT is being prepared". It is structured so that you cannot continue to stay in. Further, as a mode in which the player ignores the push order navigation and shifts to the "AT in progress state", (1) when both the push order navigation of the re-game combination and the push order bell are ignored, (2) the re-game If you ignore the push order navigation of the role, (3) if you ignore the push order navigation of either the replay combination or the push order bell, (4) the push order navigation of either the replay combination or the push order bell When it is ignored and the RT state falls (for example, it shifts from "RT3" to "RT1"), and the like can be mentioned. Here, the push order bell mainly refers to the condition device numbers 42 to 47 (3 bells) having a possibility of shifting the RT state, and for example, any of the condition device numbers 23 to 40 (7 bells). Even if the push order navigation is ignored when Ka is elected, it is not necessary to shift to the "AT in progress state". Of course, even if the push order navigation is ignored when any of the condition device numbers 23 to 40 (7 bells) is won, the state may be shifted to the "AT in progress state". In the present embodiment, the probability of the replaying combination in the case of "RT2" is almost the same as that of "RT1", but the expected value of the game medal acquisition in the case of "RT2" is relative. When the configuration is set to a high value, a configuration that shifts to the "AT in progress state" even if the push order navigation is ignored is particularly effective in preventing capture. Further, although not shown, the state related to the AT after the RAM clear execution based on the setting change process stays in the "normal game state". The explanation in the figure is just a concrete example. For example, the case where the "re-game-C5" is won is illustrated only when the "re-game-C5" is the state related to AT. It does not mean that it will be migrated, but only a concrete example is described.

Next, FIG. 41 is a flowchart of timer interrupt processing according to the subroutine of step 4600 in the present embodiment. The processing of the subroutine is started when the timer interrupt is started in the processing of step 4040 or step 4104, and thereafter, a predetermined time (T is set in this example, but a time of about 2 ms is set, for example). It is configured to be executed periodically with a cycle of).

First, in step 4602, the CPUMC of the main control board M executes processing at the start of an interrupt (for example, saving data held in a register in the CPUMC, checking the input port of a power failure detection signal, and the like). Next, in step 4604, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the power failure is currently detected (in the interrupt processing this time). If No in step 4604, in step 4900, the CPU MC of the main control board M executes the power cutoff process described later. On the other hand, in the case of Yes in step 4604, in step 4606, the CPUMC of the main control board M starts timer measurement (update processing of various timers managed by software). Next, in step 4608, the CPUMC of the main control board M generates input port data and stores the data (updates the storage area of each input port data in the RAM area). Here, the input port data includes the settlement button D60, the start lever D50, the stop button D40, the door switch D80, the setting door switch M10, the setting key switch M20, the setting / reset button M30, the power failure detection signal, and the input reception sensor D10s. , 1st input sensor D20s, 2nd input sensor D30s, 1st payout sensor H10s, 2nd payout sensor H20s, etc. Sampled at interrupt interval T).

Next, in step 4610, the CPUMC of the main control board M refers to the input port data in the RAM area, and according to the sampling result of each input port data, the door switch flag, the setting door switch flag, and the setting key switch flag. (For example, when the switch state of the door switch D80 is continuously on over multiple samplings, by turning on the door switch flag, the front is not affected by noise. It can also be detected that the door DU is open). Next, in step 4611, the CPUMC of the main control board M executes a rotating cylinder drive control process (process related to control of drive of the reel M50) of all reels (left reel M51, middle reel M52, right reel M53). .. Next, in step 4612, the CPU MC of the main control board M refers to the AT counter M60 and determines whether or not the counter value is greater than 0. In the case of Yes in step 4612, in step 4613, the CPU MC of the main control board M displays the number of remaining AT games (number of AT games) on the AT counter value display device D280, and proceeds to step 4614. In addition, even if No in step 4612, the process proceeds to step 4614. Next, in step 4614, the CPU MC of the main control board M outputs output data to the output port. Here, the output data is data for driving the reel M50, the blocker D100, and the like. Next, in step 4616, the CPUMC of the main control board M turns off all the error flags (although not shown, the inserted medal backflow flag, the inserted number error flag, the medal retention error flag, the inserted abnormal error flag, and the payout abnormality). It is determined whether or not all the flags related to the error such as the error flag, the payout medal retention error flag, the door switch flag, etc. are off). In the case of Yes in step 4616, in step 4618, the CPUMC of the main control board M sets an error non-detection command (a command to the sub control board S side and a command related to the fact that no error is detected) ( For example, it is set in the register area), and the process proceeds to step 4622. On the other hand, if No in step 4616, in step 4620, the CPUMC of the main control board M sets an error detection command (a command to the sub control board S side and a command related to the fact that an error is detected). (For example, it is set in the register area), and the process proceeds to step 4622. In step 4620, the information related to the error corresponding to the turned-on error flag (the error currently occurring) is transmitted to the sub-control board S side. In addition, the error-undetected command may be set only when the error is cleared from the state in which the error occurred (only when it is determined that the flag is turned off), and when the error is not detected, the command is applicable. It is not necessary to execute the information setting process (S4618 may be omitted). Further, the error detection command may execute the set process only when an error occurs from the state where no error has occurred, or from the state where the first error (for example, the inserted medal retention error) has occurred. The set process may be executed when the type of error changes as in the second error (for example, payout medal retention error).

Next, in step 4622, the CPUMC of the main control board M transmits a control command (command on the sub control board S side) (for example, when it is set in the register area in step 4618 or step 4620, if it is set in the register area). The set control command will be sent). Next, in step 4624, the CPU MC of the main control board M outputs an external terminal signal (a signal for transmitting information from the rotating drum type game machine P to an external hall computer or the like). Although not shown, information related to the error output by the external signal includes a door opening error, a closing error error, a payout error error, a setting door opening error, a closing reception sensor retention error, and the like. To. The door opening error is configured to be an error when the front door DU is opened and the door switch flag is turned on, and the setting door opening error is configured so that the setting door is opened and the setting door switch flag is turned on. If this happens, an error will occur, and the insertion reception sensor retention error will result in an error when the insertion reception sensor detects the retention of the game medal. Next, in step 4626, the CPUMC of the main control board M lights the output data of the LED (7-segment LED lamp, etc.) (for example, a predetermined 7-segment LED unit among the plurality of 7-segment LED units, and 7 Outputs (lights a predetermined segment of the segment) (so-called dynamic lighting). Next, in step 4628, the CPUMC of the main control board M executes an LED lighting mode (for example, changing the LED lighting color). Note that step 4628 does not have to be executed. Next, in step 4630, the CPUMC of the main control board M executes soft random number management processing (update processing of random number values managed by software, etc.). Next, in step 4632, the CPUMC of the main control board M acquires the internal information register data (the internal information register has an area in which the error flag bit is set when an abnormality occurs in the random number generation circuit). .. Next, in step 4634, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the frequency of the random number update clock is normal (whether or not the abnormality flag bit indicating the frequency abnormality is set). Specifically, when the frequency of the random number update clock falls below a predetermined value, the error flag bit is set. In the case of Yes in step 4634, in step 4636, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the update state of the built-in random number is normal (whether or not the error flag bit indicating the update state abnormality is set). To judge. In the case of Yes in step 4636, in step 4638, the CPUMC of the main control board M executes the interrupt end process and shifts to the next process (process of step 4602). On the other hand, if No in step 4634 or 4636, in step 4640, the CPUMC of the main control board M sets the built-in random number error display (for example, sets the error number in the register area). Next, in step 4300, the CPU MC of the main control board M executes the above-mentioned non-recoverable error processing.

Next, FIG. 42 is a flowchart of the power cutoff process according to the subroutine of step 4900 in FIG. 41. First, in step 4902, the CPUMC of the main control board M saves the stack pointer. Next, in step 4904, the CPU MC of the main control board M turns on the power-off processed flag (for example, updates the inside of the power-off processed flag area of the RAM area with a value corresponding to on). Next, in step 4906, the CPUMC of the main control board M calculates a checksum from the start address of the RAM area to the address immediately before the checksum area, and error detection information (for example, the calculation) based on the calculated checksum. The lower 1 byte of the checksum, or its complement) is set in the checksum area. Next, in step 4912, the CPUMC of the main control board M prohibits the writing of the RAM, and proceeds to step 4914. Next, in step 4914, the CPUMC of the main control board M executes an infinite loop process for waiting for a reset.

Next, the control process executed on the sub-control board S side will be described with reference to FIGS. 43 to 45. First, FIG. 43 is a main flowchart on the sub-control board S side in the rotating cylinder type game machine P according to the present embodiment. Here, the upper side of the figure is the initial processing on the sub-control board S side that is executed only when the power is turned on to the game machine, and the lower side of the figure is the sub-control board that is repeatedly executed after the power is turned on to the game machine. This is the main processing on the S side. First, to explain from the flowchart on the upper side of the figure, in step 6999, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S is subjected to initial setting processing (for example, a set of vector addresses (upper), calculation of checksums of all RWMs, and RWM area. After executing initialization, etc.), the process proceeds to the sub-routine on the lower side of the figure in step 7000.

Next, the sub-side routine on the lower side of the figure will be described. First, in step 7100, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S executes the effect operation content determination process described later. Next, in step 7500, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S executes the effect operation control process described later. Next, in step 7600, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S executes the transparency effect display device control process described later, and repeats the process of returning to the beginning of the main process flow. Hereinafter, each subroutine will be described in detail.

First, FIG. 44 is a flowchart of the effect operation content determination process according to the subroutine of step 7100 of FIG. 43 in the present embodiment. First, in step 7102, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S is transmitted from the main control board M side to the sub-control board S side by the start lever operation command (the command set in step 4252 and the process of step 4622). ) Is received or not. In the case of Yes in step 7102, in step 7104, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S acquires the information regarding the game (information regarding the winning combination and the game state) transmitted from the main control board M side. Next, in step 7106, based on the acquired information about the game, the effect pattern (the effect mode executed by the effect display device SG) related to this game is set. Next, in step 7108, based on the acquired information on the game, an effect pattern related to other effects is set. Next, in step 7110, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S turns on the effect operation permission flag (a flag that enables the execution of the effect operation control process in step 7500 when it is on), and then turns on the next process (step 7500). Process).

Next, FIG. 45 is a flowchart of the effect operation control process according to the subroutine of step 7500 of FIG. 43 in the present embodiment. First, in step 7502, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the effect operation permission flag is on. In the case of Yes in step 7502, in step 7504, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S turns off the effect operation permission flag. Next, in step 7506, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S turns on the effect operation executing flag (a flag that is turned on when the effect operation control process is being executed), and proceeds to step 7508. On the other hand, even if No in step 7502, the process proceeds to step 7508.

Next, in step 7508, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the effect execution operation flag is on. In the case of Yes in step 7508, in step 7510, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the effect execution timing related to the current game has been reached. In the case of Yes in step 7510, in step 7512, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S displays the effect pattern set in step 7106 of FIG. 44 on the effect display device SG, and proceeds to step 7514. Next, in step 7514, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the effect execution timing of other effects (game effect lamp D26, etc.) has been reached. In the case of Yes in step 7514, in step 7524, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S executes the effect pattern set in step 7108 of FIG. 44, and proceeds to step 7526. In addition, even if No in step 7514, the process proceeds to step 7526. Next, in step 7526, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S is the effect operation in the game (the effect operation set by the subroutine in step 7100, and the effect pattern related to the effect operation when the start lever D50 is operated, and the effect pattern related to the effect operation. It is determined whether or not the effect (the effect that can determine the effect execution timing) has been completed. In the case of Yes in step 7526, in step 7528, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S turns off the effect execution operation flag and shifts to the next process (process of step 7600). On the other hand, even if No in step 7508 or 7526, the process proceeds to the next process (process in step 7600). As described above, in this example, regarding the effect on the effect display device SG and the control of the game effect lamp D26, etc., the effect pattern is determined when the start lever D50 is operated, and is appropriately transmitted from the main control board M side. Although it was decided to receive and execute a command related to the effect execution timing related to the progress of the game to be performed, the execution timing of each effect is not limited to this. It may be executed by receiving an effect (for example, push order navigation) on the effect display device SG or an execution command related to the effect execution timing of the game effect lamp D26. That is, as long as the configuration is such that the effect of the effect can be increased, the present invention is not limited to the separation of the present example.

Next, FIG. 46 is a flowchart of the transparency effect display device control process according to the subroutine of step 7600 of FIG. 43 in the present embodiment. First, in step 7602, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the lighting pattern set timing of the transparency effect display device TSG has been reached. As the lighting pattern set timing of the transparency effect display device TSG, for example, the operation timing of the start lever D50, the initial processing execution timing after the power of the rotating cylinder type game machine P is turned on, and the game not progressing for a predetermined period It may be the standby state transition timing (when the standby state is reached, the standby demo effect is executed by the effect display device SG), the game medal insertion timing, and the like. In the case of Yes in step 7602, in step 7604, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S sets the lighting pattern of the transparency effect display device TSG, and proceeds to step 7606. Even if No in step 7602, the process proceeds to step 7606.

Next, in step 7606, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the control timing (timing of lighting, extinguishing, etc.) of the transparency effect display device TSG has been reached. In the case of Yes in step 7606, in step 7608, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S executes the control of the transparency effect display device TSG, and shifts to the next process (process of step 7000). Even if No in step 7606, the process proceeds to the next process (process in step 7000).

With the above configuration, according to the rotating cylinder type gaming machine P according to the present embodiment, even when an electromagnetic wave is emitted near the light emitting member 1000, the high voltage signal is a circuit for frame ground. It flows to the frame ground line via the pattern 1050. Therefore, when the frame ground line is grounded to the outside of the housing, the high voltage signal can be sent to the outside of the rotating cylinder type game machine P. Further, when the frame ground line is not grounded to the outside of the housing, the high voltage signal is attenuated by the noise suppression protector. In this way, even when an electromagnetic wave is emitted near the light emitting member 1000, it is possible to prevent the inflow to the main control board M, the sub control board S, and the like, and the content of the game of the main control board M and the sub It is possible to prevent the control board S from affecting the content of the effect.

The configuration of the transparency effect display device TSG according to this example as described above is not limited to these configurations as long as the same effect is obtained in the pachinko gaming machine and the rotating cylinder type gaming machine P.

(Example 1 of change from this embodiment)
In the present embodiment, the figure case unit FCU is provided with the transparent effect display device TSG, and the transparent effect display device TSG is provided with the frame ground circuit pattern 1050, whereby the figure case unit FCU (attached to the figure case unit FCU) is attached. The transparent effect display device TSG) is configured to be less susceptible to the influence of electromagnetic waves from the outside, but the configuration in which the frame ground circuit pattern 1050 is provided in the rotating game machine is limited to that of the present embodiment. Not done. Therefore, a configuration different from that of the present embodiment in the rotating cylinder type gaming machine provided with the frame ground circuit pattern 1050 will be described in detail below as a modification 1 from the present embodiment. Specifically, it can also be applied to a normal circuit board used for an LED lamp unit S10 or the like. More specifically, by forming the circuit board CB (described later) constituting the LED lamp unit S10 shown in FIG. 1 along the outer circumference, the frame ground circuit pattern is formed along the outer circumference of the light emitting member 1000 described above. The same effect as the configuration in which 1050 is formed (FIG. 5 (A)) can be expected.

First, FIG. 47 is a plan sectional view showing the configuration of the LED lamp unit S10 according to the first modification from the present embodiment. As shown in FIG. 1, the LED lamp unit S10 is arranged on each of the right side and the left side of the rotating cylinder type game machine. FIG. 47 shows an LED lamp unit arranged on the right side of the rotating cylinder type game machine. Hereinafter, the LED lamp unit on the right side will be described as the LED lamp unit S10, but the LED lamp unit on the left side is also the LED lamp on the right side. It has a similar configuration except that it is symmetrical with the unit. The LED lamp unit S10 mainly has a decorative cover member DC and a circuit board CB. As shown in FIG. 1, the decorative cover member DC has a long shape and is arranged along a substantially vertical direction of the rotating cylinder type game machine.

The decorative cover member DC is a so-called lens, and is provided with various colors and patterns. Similarly, the circuit board CB has a long shape and is arranged along the decorative cover member DC. The decorative cover member DC is arranged so as to cover the entire circuit board CB. A plurality of light emitting diode LDs that emit light are mounted on the circuit board CB along the circuit board CB, and the light emitted from the light emitting diode LD passes through the decorative cover member DC after illuminating the decorative cover member DC. Then, it advances toward the front of the diode type game machine. Therefore, the player can visually recognize the color and pattern attached to the decorative cover member DC by the light emitted from the light emitting diode LD.

Further, a control IC for controlling the light emitting diode LD is mounted on the circuit board CB, a circuit pattern CSP for the control signal for supplying the control signal from the control IC to the light emitting diode LD, and a high voltage on the frame ground line. A frame ground circuit pattern 1050 for passing a signal is formed. In the circuit board CB, the frame ground circuit pattern 1050 is formed so as to circulate around the control signal circuit pattern CSP, and is formed on the outer peripheral side of the control signal circuit pattern CSP.

For example, in the decorative cover member DC, the distance from the closest position NP (distance DL0) closest to the end of the circuit board CB to the frame ground circuit pattern 1050 is DL1, and the closest position NP to the control signal circuit. The distance to the pattern CSP is DL2. As described above, in the circuit board CB, the frame ground circuit pattern 1050 is formed on the outer peripheral side of the control signal circuit pattern CSP, and DL1 <DL2. Therefore, even when an electromagnetic wave is emitted at the closest position NP, it is difficult for a high voltage signal to flow through the control signal circuit pattern CSP far from the closest position NP, and the frame ground closer to the closest position NP. The high voltage signal easily flows through the circuit pattern 1050, and the high voltage signal affects the main control board M, the sub control board S, and the like by flowing the high voltage signal from the frame ground circuit pattern 1050 to the frame ground line. It can be prevented.

As described above, according to the rotating cylinder type game machine P according to the first modification from the present embodiment, the player is formed by forming the frame ground circuit pattern 1050 on the circuit board CB for controlling the light emitting diode LD. However, even if the decorative cover member DC of the LED lamp unit S10 is touched at the closest position NP closest to the circuit board CB, the distance from the closest position NP to the frame ground circuit pattern 1050 is However, it is shorter than the distance from the closest position NP to the control signal circuit pattern CSP, and by making it easier for the high voltage signal to flow through the frame ground circuit pattern 1050, it affects the main control board M and the sub control board S. Can be lowered.

When the above-mentioned light emitting member 1000 is used, it can be arranged on the back side of the reel window D160. In that case, the frame ground circuit pattern is formed over the entire surface by using a dedicated conductive layer. Is possible. As a result, it is possible to facilitate the flow of the high voltage signal generated from the front surface of the reel window, which is the closest position from the player, to the frame ground circuit pattern.

<Circuit pattern 5100 for frame ground>
The frame ground circuit patterns are the frame ground circuit pattern 5100A formed on the front surface side of the lamp substrate 5000 (first layer 5000A formed on the circuit board) and the back surface side (the first layer 5000A formed on the circuit board) of the lamp substrate 5000. It is mainly composed of the frame ground circuit pattern 5100B formed in the four layers 5000B), and is electrically connected via a viar (through hole) at an appropriate position. Hereinafter, the surface side of the lamp substrate 5000 ( The frame ground circuit pattern 5100A formed on the first layer 5000A) formed on the circuit board, and the frame ground circuit pattern 5100B formed on the back surface side (fourth layer 5000B formed on the circuit board) of the lamp substrate 5000. Will be explained in this order.

The frame ground circuit pattern 5100A formed on the front surface side of the lamp board 5000 (first layer 5000A formed on the circuit board) is a ground in one conductive layer (inside the first layer 5000A) constituting the lamp board 5000. It is formed by a linear pattern thinner than the pattern, and is formed in a shape substantially similar to the shape of the outer periphery of the lamp substrate 5000 (a shape along the outer periphery of the lamp substrate 5000) over the entire outer circumference, but at least a part thereof. Is not connected to the other closest circuit pattern for frame ground, that is, it is formed so as not to completely loop around the outer circumference of the lamp substrate 5000. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 52 (A), the frame ground circuit pattern 5100A has a first end portion 5410A, a second end portion 5420A, a third end portion 5421A, and a fourth end on the outer periphery of the lamp substrate 5000. Part 5430A, 5th end 5431A, 6th end 5440A, 7th end 5441A, 8th end 5450A, 9th end 5451A, 10th end 5460A, 11th end 5461A, 12th end 5470A , 13th end 5471A, 14th end 5480A. Then, the second end portion 5420A and the third end portion 5421A, the fourth end portion 5430A and the fifth end portion 5431A, the sixth end portion 5440A and the seventh end portion 5441A, the eighth end portion 5450A and the ninth end portion 5451A, The tenth end 5460A and the eleventh end 5461A, the twelfth end 5470A and the thirteenth end 5471A are frame ground circuit patterns 5100B (first end 5410B and the first) formed on the fourth conductive layer, which will be described later. It is electrically connected via a frame ground circuit pattern that connects the two end portions 5420B). On the other hand, the first end portion 5410A and the 14th end portion 5480A, which are closest to each other among the frame ground circuit patterns arranged in the first conductive layer, pass through the second end portion 5420A to the thirteenth end portion 5471A. Although it is bypassed and electrically connected, there is no circuit pattern that directly connects both ends (at the shortest design possible distance). That is, the frame ground circuit pattern 5100 does not loop in one conductive layer. Further, the above-mentioned circuit pattern for control signals, the circuit pattern for frame decoration lamps, and the game machine ground line UGL (ground pattern "GND") are not electrically connected and are formed in an insulated state. ..

Next, the frame ground circuit pattern 5100B formed on the back surface side (fourth layer 5000B formed on the circuit board) of the lamp substrate 5000 will be described. The frame ground circuit pattern 5100B formed on the back surface side of the lamp board 5000 (fourth layer 5000B formed on the circuit board) is formed on the front surface side of the lamp board 5000 (first layer 5000A formed on the circuit board). Similar to the frame ground circuit pattern 5100A, it is formed of a linear pattern thinner than the ground pattern in the conductive layer 1 (inside the fourth layer 5000B) constituting the lamp substrate 5000, and covers the entire outer circumference. Although it is formed in a shape substantially similar to the shape of the outer circumference of the lamp board 5000 (a shape along the outer circumference of the lamp board 5000), at least a part of the shape is not connected to the closest other frame ground circuit pattern, that is, , The outer circumference of the lamp substrate 5000 is formed so as not to completely loop. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 53, the frame ground circuit pattern 5100B has a first end portion 5410B, a second end portion 5420B, a third end portion 5421B, and a fourth end portion 5430B on the outer periphery of the lamp substrate 5000. Have. The second end portion 5420B and the third end portion 5421B are each a frame ground circuit pattern 5100A (a frame ground circuit connecting the 13th end portion 5471A and the 14th end portion 5480A) formed on the first conductive layer described above. It is electrically connected via a pattern). On the other hand, the first end portion 5410B and the fourth end portion 5430B, which are closest to each other among the frame ground circuit patterns arranged in the fourth conductive layer, directly connect both terminals (at the shortest design possible distance). ) There is no circuit pattern to connect. That is, the frame ground circuit pattern 5100B does not loop in one conductive layer. Further, it is electrically connected to the terminal of the frame ground circuit pattern connector FGC via the frame ground circuit pattern 5100 formed on the back surface side of the lamp board 5000 (the fourth layer 5000B formed on the circuit board). There is. On the other hand, the above-mentioned circuit pattern for control signals, the circuit pattern for frame decoration lamps, and the game machine ground line UGL (ground pattern "GND") are not electrically connected and are formed in an insulated state. ..

As described above, the frame ground circuit pattern formed on the lamp substrate 5000 (circuit board) is the frame ground circuit pattern 5100A formed on the front surface side (first layer 5000A formed on the circuit board) and the back surface side. Although it is formed over the outer periphery of the lamp board 5000 (circuit board) by the frame ground circuit pattern 5100B formed on (fourth layer 5000B formed on the circuit board), it is a part of the outer periphery of the lamp board 5000. (Between the first end portion 5410A and the 14th end portion 5480A of the frame ground circuit pattern 5100A and between the first end portion 5410B and the fourth end portion 5430B of the frame ground circuit pattern 5100B). No circuit pattern for frame ground is formed on the surface, and the circuit pattern for frame ground is formed so as not to loop in one conductive layer or all conductive layers, while all frame ground circuit patterns are frames. The ground circuit pattern connection connector is electrically connected to the FGC terminal.

As described above, the frame ground circuit pattern 5100 is not electrically connected to the plurality of light emitting elements (plurality of LEDs) provided on the lamp substrate 5000 and the frame decoration lamp circuit pattern LEDL. It is formed while maintaining an insulated state, and is arranged outside the control signal circuit pattern and the frame decoration lamp circuit pattern LEDL over the outer periphery of the lamp substrate 5000, and a high voltage signal has flowed into the lamp substrate 5000. Even so, the high voltage signal flows through the frame ground circuit pattern 5100 and is discharged to the outside of the lamp board 5000 via the terminal of the frame ground circuit pattern connection connector FGC. Therefore, when a high voltage signal is mixed from the outside, it easily flows through the frame ground circuit pattern 5100 formed on the outer periphery thereof, and even if it flows through the frame ground circuit pattern 5100, it is an insulated frame decoration lamp. It is possible to reduce the possibility that a plurality of light emitting elements (plurality of LEDs) emit abnormal light or are damaged by affecting the circuit pattern LEDL. In particular, in the second embodiment, as in the case of modification 1 from the present embodiment described above, from the closest closest position where the player can directly contact from the end of the lamp substrate 5000 to the frame ground circuit pattern 5100. The distance is LFG, and the distance from the closest position to the circuit pattern LEDL for the frame decoration lamp is LLEDL. In the lamp substrate 5000, the frame ground circuit pattern 5100 is formed on the outer peripheral side of the frame decoration lamp circuit pattern LEDL, and LFG <LEDL. Therefore, even if the source of the high-voltage signal is maliciously brought close to the game machine and the high-voltage signal is mixed, the generated high-voltage signal is the closest circuit pattern for frame ground. Since it is easy to flow to the 5100 (high voltage signals are likely to be mixed in the conductors that are close to each other), it affects the insulated frame decoration lamp circuit pattern LEDL, and multiple light emitting elements (multiple LEDs) are abnormal. It is possible to preferably reduce the possibility of light emission or damage. It is desirable that the frame ground circuit pattern 5100 is formed on the outer periphery of the lamp substrate 5000 and is grounded to the outside of the game machine housing via the frame ground line FGL described later, which is suitable as a game machine. When the grounded state is maintained, the high-voltage signal flows (is discharged) to the ground (earth) outside the housing of the game machine, and it can be further expected to prevent malfunction due to noise such as the high-voltage signal.

Next, the details of the electronic components mounted on the lamp substrate 5000 will be described with reference to FIG. 54.

For example, it is composed of a first light emitting element 5310, a second light emitting element 5320, ..., And a seventh light emitting element 5370, and an aggregate of these plurality of light emitting elements (plurality of LEDs) is frame-decorated. It is called the lamp 5300. The plurality of light emitting elements (plurality of LEDs) are formed in a land for a plurality of light emitting elements (plurality of LEDs) formed on the surface side (first layer 5000A formed on the circuit board) of the lamp substrate 5000. It is soldered, and the circuit pattern LEDL (PERDL, LEDDL) for the frame decoration lamp is electrically connected via this land. The light emitting element can be, for example, a light emitting diode (LED). As the light emitting diode, a diode element having a PN junction can be generally used. The light emitting diode may be a laser diode (LD) element or the like. Further, the light emitting diode can use a plurality of colors.

It has a circuit pattern LEDDL for a frame decoration lamp that supplies a control signal for controlling light emission such as blinking.

<Circuit pattern connection connector for frame ground FGC>
The frame ground circuit pattern connection connector FGC is an electronic component for connecting the frame ground circuit pattern 5100 formed on the lamp board 5000. The input side (connection terminal side) of the frame ground circuit pattern connection connector FGC is electrically connected to the countersunk sheet metal portion TBK1800 of the door rear surface TBK shown in FIG. 51. Further, it is grounded to the outside of the housing of the game machine via the contact CTP via the hinge sheet metal portion TBK1900 of the door back surface TBK shown in FIG. 51. Although not shown, the contact CTP is provided near the power supply unit E, the external connection terminal, the power switch Ea, and the like, and is electrically connected to the frame ground circuit pattern 5100.
On the other hand, as described above, the frame ground circuit pattern connection connector FGC is soldered to the connector mounting land formed on the back surface side (fourth layer 5000B formed on the circuit board) of the lamp board 5000. It is connected to the frame ground circuit pattern 5100 via this land.

Next, the circuit configuration of the lamp substrate 5000 and the power supply unit E will be described with reference to FIG. 55.

The power supply unit E generates a DC power supply having an appropriate voltage including a DC12V line from an AC24V AC power supply supplied from the outside of the game machine, and a game machine ground line UGL (synonymous with signal ground) as a reference potential is defined. , A board for supplying the generated DC power supply to the entire game machine including the lamp board 5000 and other control boards (for example, main control board M, sub control board S, prize ball payout control board KH), and noise. It has a countermeasure protector 6100 and a noise countermeasure protector 6200. The noise countermeasure protectors 6100 and 6200 have a function of attenuating a high voltage signal flowing into the game machine due to the emission of electromagnetic waves. The noise suppression protectors 6100 and 6200 preferably have the same function. The noise suppression protector 6100 is arranged between the AC24V power supply and the game machine ground line UGL. The noise suppression protector 6200 is arranged between the AC24V power supply and the frame ground line FGL. Here, the game machine ground line UGL (game machine ground) is an electrical connection for determining a common reference potential of control circuits such as the main control board M and the sub control board S in the game machine housing, and is described above. It is different from the frame ground line FGL (frame ground).

The noise countermeasure protectors 6100 and 6200 are configured by, for example, a DSP (diasurge protector), a coil, a capacitor, a resistor, a ferrite bead, or the like individually or in combination, and are noise signals mixed in the frame ground line FGL and the game machine ground line UGL. Has the role of releasing to the AC24V side directly or by attenuating. As a specific example, when the coil is used as a protector for noise suppression, an unnecessary high voltage signal (high frequency component) flowing in from the lamp substrate 5000 or the AC24V power supply side is absorbed by the coil, and the high voltage signal (high frequency component) is reduced. To.

Further, when the capacitor is used as a protector for noise suppression, the characteristic of the capacitor is that the impedance is high for a component having a low frequency, and conversely, the impedance is low for a component having a high frequency. Therefore, by utilizing this characteristic, as a general DC power supply, it is used as a high-pass filter that passes only a high voltage signal (high frequency component) which is a component of high frequency noise in a state of being electrically insulated.

As described above, on the output side of the power supply unit E, various generated DC power supplies are appropriately supplied to each control board using a circuit board, harness, etc. (not shown), and also to the lamp board 5000 as appropriate. The DC12V line and the game machine ground line UGL or the like are connected by using a circuit board or a harness. The game machine ground line UGL is connected not only to the lamp board 5000 but also to other control boards (for example, main control board M, sub control board S) other than the lamp board 5000.

The operation of the power supply unit E and the lamp board 5000 configured and connected as described above when an electromagnetic wave (high voltage signal) is generated in the game machine frame YW close to the lamp board 5000 will be described. For example, when a player's hand touches the game machine frame YW close to the lamp board 5000 to generate (discharge) strong static electricity accumulated in the human body, the generated static electricity is a high voltage signal as noise. Will flow to the lamp board 5000. However, since the frame ground circuit pattern 5100 is formed on the lamp substrate 5000, a high voltage signal from the outside flows through the frame ground circuit pattern 5100 without being applied to the frame decoration lamp 5300 (FIG. 52, FIG. (See FIG. 53), the circuit pattern connection connector FGC for frame ground is used to flow to the frame ground line FGL (see FIG. 53). Further, the high voltage signal flowing through the frame ground line FGL is transmitted from the countersunk sheet metal part TBK1800 of the door back surface TBK formed of a metal body to the hinge sheet metal part TBK1900 (see FIGS. 51 and 55) and via the contact CTP. It flows to the ground (earth) outside the housing of the game machine (see FIG. 55). If the frame ground line FGL is not grounded to the outside of the game machine housing, the high voltage signal will be attenuated by the noise suppression protector 6200. Therefore, when the high voltage signal flowing through the lamp board 5000 is applied to the frame decoration lamp 5300, the control boards other than the lamp board 5000 (for example, the main control board M, the sub) via the frame decoration lamp 5300. A high voltage signal is supplied to the control board S), causing a malfunction of the control board such as the main control board M, which affects the game result due to a malfunction in which the winning / losing lottery result changes from a loss to a big hit. This can be suitably suppressed.

In the second embodiment, an example in which the frame ground circuit pattern 5100 is provided on the lamp substrate 5000 has been described, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, a board placed near a place where strong electromagnetic waves or static electricity is generated when a player or an administrator touches the game machine frame YW, or a circuit board placed near a noise source such as a game island. Is relatively susceptible to electromagnetic waves. Therefore, it is preferable to provide the frame ground circuit pattern 5100 on a substrate or the like arranged near the game machine frame YW.

Next, in step 1006, the information transmission control means MT transmits ram clear information (command) indicating that the RAM of the main control board M has been cleared to the sub-main control unit SM side (even if it is transmitted at the relevant timing). Alternatively, at that timing, a command may be set and transmitted by a control command transmission process described later), and the process proceeds to step 1016. On the other hand, if No in step 1002, in step 1008, the CPU MC of the main control board M checks the contents of the RAM area in the main control board M (for example, saves in the checksum and the RAM area recorded at the time of power failure). Compare with the amount of information provided). Next, in step 1010, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the contents of the RAM are normal (whether or not the information at the time of power failure is accurately backed up in the RAM) based on the check result. To do. If Yes in step 1010, that is, the data backed up in the RAM is abnormal, the process proceeds to the process of step 1004 (the RAM clear process described above). On the other hand, if No in step 1010, that is, the data backed up in the RAM is normal, in step 1012, the CPUMC of the main control board M is stored (backed up) in the RAM of the main control board M at the time of power failure. The various information commands of the above are acquired, and in step 1014, the acquired various information commands are transmitted to the sub-main control unit SM side (may be transmitted at the relevant timing, or the commands may be set at the relevant timing and described later. It may be configured to be transmitted by the control command transmission process), and the process proceeds to step 1016. Next, in step 1016, the CPUMC of the main control board M is triggered by an execution scheduled interrupt (for example, a hardware interrupt every about 1.5 ms) related to the main process on the main control board M side shown in FIG. However, in this example, the interrupt cycle is T), {as a result, when the execution scheduled interrupt timing is reached, the figure (b) is executed}, and the process in step 1018 is performed. Transition. After step 1018, the CPUMC of the main control board M repeatedly executes various random number update processes (for example, random number counter increment processes) until the next scheduled interrupt timing is reached.

Next, timer interrupt processing will be described. The CPUMC of the main control board M executes the process of FIG. 3B based on the interrupt request generated when the scheduled interrupt timing is reached. That is, when the fixed interrupt cycle T is reached (for example, a hardware interrupt every about 1.5 ms), in step 1100, the CPU MC of the main control board M executes the auxiliary game content determination random number acquisition process described later. .. Next, in step 1200, the CPU MC of the main control board M executes the electric accessory drive determination process described later. Next, in step 1300, the CPU MC of the main control board M executes the main game content determination random number acquisition process described later. Next, in step 1400, the CPU MC of the main control board M executes the main game symbol display process described later. Next, in step 1550, the CPU MC of the main control board M executes the special game operation condition determination process described later. Next, in step 1600, the CPU MC of the main control board M executes the special game control process described later. Next, in step 1997, the CPUMC of the main control board M causes the prize ball payout control board KH to execute the prize ball payout control process (drive control of the prize ball payout device KE, etc.) based on the winning opening where the game ball wins. , Processing to manage the result, etc.) is executed. Next, in step 1998, the CPU MC of the main control board M executes an output process of an external signal (information output to an external terminal board, a hall computer HC, or the like). Next, in step 1999, the CPUMC of the main control board M executes a control command transmission process (transmits the command set in each of the above processes to the sub-main control unit side), and immediately before the execution of this interrupt process. Return to the processing that was being executed.

Next, NMI interrupt processing will be described. As described above, the CPUMC of the main control board M is configured so that the power interruption signal from the reset IC is input to the NMI terminal of the CPU, and the processing shown in FIG. Is executed. That is, when the power of the game machine is turned off (in this example, when the NMI is interrupted), in step 1020, the CPU MC of the main control board M sets the power cut information (for example, checksum) based on the information in the RAM area. .. Next, in step 1022, the CPUMC of the main control board M prohibits writing to the RAM area, prohibits timer interrupt processing, and shifts to power cutoff waiting loop processing.

Next, FIG. 58 is a flowchart of the auxiliary game content determination random number acquisition process according to the subroutine of step 1100 in FIG. 57. First, in step 1102, the auxiliary game start port entry determination means MJ11-H determines whether or not the game ball has entered the auxiliary game start port H10 (inflow, in the case of a gate, it has passed). In the case of Yes in step 1102, in step 1104, the auxiliary game random number acquisition determination execution means MJ21-H refers to the auxiliary game symbol hold information temporary storage means MJ32b-H, and whether or not the hold balls are not the upper limit (for example, four). Is determined. In the case of Yes in step 1104, in step 1106, the auxiliary game random number acquisition determination execution means MJ21-H acquires the auxiliary game content determination random number (for example, the auxiliary game symbol winning random number). Next, in step 1108, the auxiliary game symbol holding means MJ32-H sets the random number in the auxiliary game symbol holding information temporary storage means MJ32b-H together with the information on the number of the holding balls. Is added by 1, and the process proceeds to the next process (process of step 1200). In addition, even if No in step 1102 and step 1104, the process proceeds to the next process (process of step 1200).

Next, FIG. 59 is a flowchart of the electric accessory drive determination process according to the subroutine of step 1200 in FIG. 57. First, in step 1202, the second main game start port electric accessory opening / closing condition determining means MP21-B refers to the flag area of the auxiliary game state temporary storage means MB10-H, and the electric accessory opening flag is off. Determine if it exists. In the case of Yes in step 1202, in step 1204, the second main game start port electric accessory opening / closing condition determination means MP21-B refers to the auxiliary game state temporary storage means MB10-H, and the auxiliary game symbol changing flag is set. Determine if it is off. In the case of Yes in step 1204, in step 1206, the second main game start port electric accessory opening / closing condition determination means MP21-B accesses the auxiliary game symbol holding information temporary storage means MJ32b-H, and holds the ball related to the auxiliary game symbol. Determine if there is. In the case of Yes in step 1206, in step 1216, the auxiliary game symbol determining means MN41-H refers to the auxiliary game state temporary storage means MB10-H to set the game state (flag state of the auxiliary game time reduction flag) on the auxiliary game side. At the same time as acquiring, the lottery table MN41ta-H for determining the auxiliary game symbol is referred to, and the stop symbol is determined based on the game state of the acquired auxiliary game side and the auxiliary game symbol random number based on the reserved ball (for example, the auxiliary game time reduction flag). When is on, the winning symbol is selected with a higher probability than when is off) and temporarily stored in the auxiliary game symbol information temporary storage means MB11b-H.

Here, the right side of the figure is an example of a lottery table for determining an auxiliary game stop symbol. As shown in the table, in this example, the stop symbols are "D0, D1, D2", and the stop symbols that are the hit symbols are "D1, D2", which are caused by the fact that each of them has stopped. In the non-time reduction game, when the stopped symbol is "D1", the opening mode is (opening for 0.2 seconds → closing), and the electric accessory is stopped. When the symbol is "D2", the opening mode is (opening for 0.2 seconds → closing for 0.8 seconds → opening for 2.0 seconds, closing) (maximum opening). Further, in the time reduction game, when the stopped symbol is "D1", the opening mode is (open for 1 second → closed for 1 second → open for 1 second → closed for 1 second → open for 1 second → closed) and stopped. When the symbol is "D2", the opening mode is configured to be (open for 0.2 seconds → closed for 0.8 seconds → open for 4.0 seconds → closed). It should be noted that the stop symbol is likely to be a lost symbol "D0" during the non-time reduction game, and the stop symbol is likely to be a hit symbol "D1" during the time reduction game.

Next, in step 1218, the auxiliary game variation mode determining means MN51-H sets the auxiliary game symbol to the auxiliary game symbol variation management timer MP11t-H based on the gaming state of the auxiliary game side (flag state of the auxiliary game time reduction flag). (For example, 1 second when the auxiliary game time reduction flag is on, 10 seconds when the auxiliary game time reduction flag is off) is set. Then, in step 1220, the auxiliary game symbol control means MP11-H turns on the auxiliary game symbol changing flag in the flag area of the auxiliary game state temporary storage means MB10-H. Next, in step 1222, the auxiliary game symbol holding means MJ32-H updates the holding information recorded in the auxiliary game symbol holding information temporary storage means MJ32b-H after subtracting 1 from the holding ball related to the auxiliary game symbol. At the same time, the auxiliary game symbol control means MP11-H starts the auxiliary game symbol variation management timer MP11t-H, and then starts the auxiliary game symbol variation display on the auxiliary game symbol display unit H21g.

Next, in step 1224, the auxiliary game symbol control means MP11-H determines whether or not the predetermined time related to the fluctuation time of the auxiliary game symbol has been reached with reference to the auxiliary game symbol fluctuation management timer MP11t-H. To do. In the case of Yes in step 1224, in step 1226, the auxiliary game symbol control means MP11-H acquires the stop symbol of the auxiliary game symbol by referring to the auxiliary game symbol information temporary storage means MB11b-H, and the acquired auxiliary game symbol. The stop symbol of the game symbol is confirmed and displayed on the auxiliary game symbol display unit H21g. Then, in step 1228, the auxiliary game symbol control means MP11-H turns off the auxiliary game symbol changing flag in the flag area of the auxiliary game state temporary storage means MB10-H. Next, in step 1230, the second main game start port electric accessory opening / closing condition determination means MP21-B determines whether or not the stop symbol of the auxiliary game symbol is "hit" (D1 and D2 in this example). To judge. In the case of Yes in step 1230, in step 1232, the second main game start port electric accessory opening / closing control means MP20-B is in the opening mode (for example, in the case of the hit symbol "D1") based on the hit symbol on the auxiliary game side. Is open for 1 second → closed for 1 second → open for 1 second → closed for 1 second → open for 1 second → closed. The opening mode, which is open for 5 seconds,) is determined, and a predetermined time related to the opening time (opening / closing time) of the electric accessory is set in the second main game start port electric accessory opening timer MP22t-B. Next, in step 1234, the second main game start port electric accessory opening / closing control means MP20-B turns on the electric accessory opening flag in the flag area of the auxiliary game state temporary storage means MB10-H. .. Then, in step 1236, the second main game start port electric accessory opening / closing control means MP20-B opens the second main game start port electric accessory B11d of the second main game start port B10, and proceeds to step 1242. .. Even if No in step 1202, the process proceeds to step 1242. In the second embodiment, when the main game time reduction flag is off and the auxiliary game stop symbol is the predetermined hit symbol (D2), the time for continuing to open the second main game start port electric accessory B11d is the longest. It is configured.

Next, in step 1242, the second main game start port electric accessory opening / closing control means MP20-B refers to the second main game start port electric accessory opening timer MP22t-B to set the opening time of the electric accessory. It is determined whether or not the predetermined time has been reached. In the case of Yes in step 1242, in step 1244 and step 1246, the second main game start port electric accessory opening / closing control means MP20-B closes the second main game start port electric accessory B11d and temporarily assists the game state. The flag for opening the electric accessory in the flag area of the storage means MB10-H is turned off, and the process proceeds to the next process (process in step 1300).

If No in step 1204, the process proceeds to step 1224, and if No in step 1206, step 1224, step 1230 and step 1242, the process proceeds to the next process (process in step 1300).

Further, in this flowchart, for convenience, after the stop symbol is displayed in step 1226, the process immediately proceeds to the next step, but the present invention is not limited to this. In that case, the process may be configured to move to the next process after the stop display fixed time of about 500 ms has elapsed (for example, this process is performed by performing branch processing using the stop display fixed flag and timer. Achievable).

Next, FIG. 60 is a flowchart of the main game content determination random number acquisition process according to the subroutine of step 1300 in FIG. 57. First, in step 1302, whether or not the CPUMC of the main control board M has received the first main game start port entry information from the first main game start port entry detection device A11s of the first main game start port A10. judge. In the case of Yes in step 1302, in step 1304, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the number of reserved balls related to the main game (particularly the first main game side) is not the upper limit (for example, four). In the case of Yes in step 1304, in step 1306, the CPUMC of the main control board M acquires the first main game content determination random number. In this embodiment, as the first main game content determination random number, a win / fail lottery random number for determining the win / loss, a symbol lottery random number for determining the symbol at the time of winning, and a fluctuation pattern (variation time) of the special symbol are determined. Three random numbers of the variable mode lottery random numbers for the purpose are acquired. By the way, these three random numbers are generated from random number generation means having different update cycles and random number ranges, and are acquired in series at this timing. Next, in step 1308, the CPUMC of the main control board M temporarily stores (holds) the acquired random numbers in the RAM area of the main control board M. Next, in step 1310, the CPU MC of the main control board M sends information (hold generation command) to the effect that the first main game random number has been acquired to the command transmission buffer MT10 for transmitting the information (hold generation command) to the sub-main control unit SM. Set (transmitted to the sub-main control unit SM side by the control command transmission process in step 1999).

Next, in step 1312, whether or not the CPUMC of the main control board M has received the second main game start port entry information from the second main game start port entry detection device B11s of the second main game start port B10. To judge. In the case of Yes in step 1312, in step 1314, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the number of reserved balls related to the main game (particularly the second main game side) is not the upper limit (for example, four). In the case of Yes in step 1314, in step 1316, the CPUMC of the main control board M acquires the second main game content determination random number. In the second embodiment, as the second main game content determination random number, three random numbers of a winning / fail lottery random number, a symbol lottery random number, and a variation mode lottery random number are acquired as in the case of the first main game content determination means. By the way, the acquisition range of each random number on the first main game side and the acquisition range of each random number on the second main game side (for example, the acquisition range of the winning / failing lottery random number for the first main game and the winning / failing lottery random number for the second main game). Is set to the same. Next, in step 1318, the CPUMC of the main control board M temporarily stores (holds) the acquired random numbers in the RAM area. Next, in step 1320, the CPU MC of the main control board M sends information (hold generation command) to the effect that the second main game random number has been acquired to the command transmission buffer MT10 for transmitting the information (hold generation command) to the sub-main control unit SM. It is set (transmitted to the sub-main control unit SM side by the control command transmission process in step 1999), and the process proceeds to the next process (process in step 1400). If No in steps 1302 and 1304, the process proceeds to step 1312, and if No in steps 1312 and 1314, the process proceeds to the next process (process in step 1400).

Next, FIG. 61 is a flowchart of the main game symbol display process according to the subroutine of step 1400 in FIG. 57. First, in step 1401, the CPUMC of the main control board M refers to the RAM area of the main control board M and confirms whether or not there is a hold of the second main game symbol. In the case of Yes in step 1401, in step 1400 (1), the CPU MC of the main control board M executes the first main game symbol display process described later, and the next process {processes of steps 1400 (1) and (2). }. On the other hand, if No in step 1401, in step 1400 (2), the CPU MC of the main control board M executes the second main game symbol display process described later, and the next process {steps 1400 (1), (2). Process}.

As described above, in the second embodiment, when the reserved ball of the second main game symbol exists, regardless of the existence of the reserved ball of the first main game symbol (even if the winning order is the first main game symbol). It is configured to prioritize the hold digestion of the second main game symbol (even if the hold comes first), but it is not limited to this (hold digestion based on the winning order and both main game symbols at the same time). It may be configured to execute a parallel lottery that draws in parallel).

Next, FIG. 62 is a flowchart of the first main game symbol display process (second main game symbol display process) according to the subroutine of step 1400 (1) {step 1400 (2)} in FIG. Since this processing is substantially the same for the first main game symbol side and the second main game symbol, the first main game symbol side will be mainly described, and the processing on the second main game symbol side will be described. Write in parentheses. First, in step 1403, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the fluctuation start condition is satisfied. Here, the change start condition is a condition that the special game is not in progress (or the condition device is in operation), the main game symbol is not changing, and the main game symbol is held. Although not shown in this example, when a variable fixed time (time for stopping and displaying the confirmed display symbol after the final display of the main game symbol) is provided, the fluctuation start condition of the next fluctuation is set during the fixed variable time. May be configured so as not to satisfy.

In the case of Yes in step 1403, in step 1405 and step 1406, the CPUMC of the main control board M is temporarily stored in the RAM area of the main control board M, and the first main game content determination random number related to the current symbol variation ( The second main game content determination random number) is read, deleted from the RAM area of the main control board M, and the remaining hold information temporarily stored is shifted (hold digestion process). Next, in step 1410-1, the CPUMC of the main control board M refers to each game state, and refers to the first main game content determination random number (second main game content determination random number) (particularly, the winning lottery random number). Based on the above, the main game symbol winning / failing lottery is executed.

Here, FIG. 63 (main game table 1) is an example of a first main game winning / failing lottery table (second main game winning / failing lottery table). As shown in this example, in the second embodiment, the jackpot winning probability in the probability-variable gaming state is configured to be higher than the jackpot winning probability in the non-probability-variable gaming state. The winning probability is just an example, and is not limited to this.

Next, in step 1410-2, the CPUMC of the main control board M refers to the first main game symbol determination lottery table (second main game symbol determination lottery table), and the main game symbol winning / failing result and the first A stop symbol related to the main game symbol is determined based on the main game content determination random number (second main game content determination random number) (particularly, the symbol lottery random number), and these are temporarily stored in the RAM area.

Here, FIG. 63 (main game symbol 2) is an example of the first main game symbol determination lottery table (second main game symbol determination lottery table). As shown in this example, in the second embodiment, when a big hit is won, among a plurality of main game symbol candidates (in this example, "4A / 5A / 7A" and "4B / 5B / 7B"). It is configured so that one main game symbol is determined as a jackpot symbol. The number of rounds of the special game determined with reference to the main game symbol is 8R for 4A, 4B, 5A, 5B, and 16R for 7A, 7B. It should be noted that the random value and the type of the stop symbol are also examples, and are not limited to this. {For example, the lost symbol is not limited to one type of symbol, and a plurality of types of symbols are provided. May}.

Next, in step 1412, the CPUMC of the main control board M refers to the first main game variation mode determination lottery table (second main game variation mode determination lottery table) corresponding to each game state, and refers to the main game symbol. The variation mode of the main game symbol is determined based on the winning / failing lottery result and the first main game content determination random number (second main game content determination random number) (particularly, the variation mode lottery random number), and these are determined in the RAM area of the main control board M. Temporarily store in, and the process proceeds to step 1414.

Here, the main game table 3 shown in FIG. 63 is an example of the first main game variation mode determination lottery table (second main game variation mode determination lottery table). As shown in this figure, in the second embodiment, the variation mode (variation time) of the main game symbol with respect to a certain random number value can be determined based on the winning / failing lottery result of the main game symbol and the main game time reduction flag state. It is configured. For example, when the winning / failing lottery result of the main game symbol is a hit for a certain random number value, it is easy to determine the fluctuation mode in which the fluctuation time is relatively long, and when the main game time reduction flag is on (time reduction). In the game state), it is configured so that the variation mode in which the variation time is relatively short can be easily determined. It should be noted that this example is merely an example, and is not limited to the type of variation mode (variation time), selectivity, and the like. Further, the symbol variation time on the first main game side in the time reduction game state (when the main game time reduction flag is on) may be configured to be relatively long {symbol variation on the second main game side. When is configured to be advantageous to the player, it is easy for the second main game side to hold the game by lowering the symbol fluctuation efficiency of the first main game side (advantageous to the player). Since the purpose is to build a situation, it is particularly effective when the starting port on the first main game side and the starting port on the second main game side cannot be separated}.

Next, in step 1414, the CPUMC of the main control board M receives commands (stop symbol information, attribute information of the stop symbol, variation mode information, etc.) related to the main game symbol temporarily stored in the RAM area of the main control board M. The command related to the current game state (design variation display start instruction command) is set in the command transmission buffer MT10 for transmitting to the sub-main control unit SM side (sub-main control unit SM side by the control command transmission process in step 1999). Will be sent to). Next, in step 1415, the CPUMC of the main control board M sets a predetermined time related to the fluctuation time of the main game symbol in the first and second main game symbol fluctuation management timers MP11t-C. Next, in step 1416, the CPUMC of the main control board M is the first main game symbol display unit A21g (second main game symbol display unit) of the first main game symbol display device A20 (second main game symbol display device B20). On B21g), the variation display of the main game symbol is started according to the variation mode stored in the RAM area of the main control board M. Next, in step 1417, the CPUMC of the main control board M turns on the changing flag and proceeds to step 1420.

On the other hand, if No in step 1403, in step 1419, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the changing flag is on. If Yes in step 1419, the process proceeds to step 1420, and if No in step 1419, the process proceeds to the next process (process in step 1550).

Next, in step 1420, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the predetermined time related to the fluctuation time of the main game symbol has been reached. In the case of Yes in step 1420, in step 1422, the CPUMC of the main control board M is for command transmission for transmitting information (symbol confirmation display instruction command) to the effect that the symbol variation is completed to the sub-main control unit SM side. It is set in the buffer MT10 (transmitted to the sub-main control unit SM side by the control command transmission process in step 1999). Next, in step 1423, the CPUMC of the main control board M is the first main game symbol display unit A21g (second main game symbol display unit) of the first main game symbol display device A20 (second main game symbol display device B20). The variation display of the main game symbol on B21g) is stopped, and the stop symbol stored in the RAM area of the main control board M is displayed and controlled as a fixed stop symbol. Next, in step 1424, the CPUMC of the main control board M turns off the changing flag.

Next, in step 1430, the CPU MC of the main control board M refers to the RAM area of the main control board M, and determines whether or not the stop symbol of the main game symbol is a jackpot symbol. In the case of Yes in step 1430, in step 1440, the CPUMC of the main control board M turns on the condition device operation flag and proceeds to step 1500. On the other hand, if No in step 1430, the process proceeds to step 1500.

Next, in step 1500, the CPU MC of the main control board M executes the specific game end determination process described later, and shifts to the next process (process of step 1550). Even if No in step 1420, the process proceeds to the next process (process in step 1550).

Next, FIG. 64 is a flowchart of the specific game end determination process according to the subroutine of step 1500 in FIG. 62. First, in step 1506, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether the main game probability change flag is off. In the case of Yes in step 1506, in step 1510, the CPU MC of the main control board M refers to the time reduction counter MP52c and determines whether or not the counter value is larger than 0. In the case of Yes in step 1510, in step 1512, the CPU MC of the main control board M decrements the counter value of the time reduction counter MP52c by 1. Next, in step 1514, the CPU MC of the main control board M refers to the time reduction counter MP52c and determines whether or not the counter value is 0. In the case of Yes in step 1514, in step 1516, the CPUMC of the main control board M turns off the main game time reduction flag. Next, in step 1518, the CPUMC of the main control board M turns off the auxiliary game time reduction flag, and proceeds to the next process (process of step 1550). In addition, even if No in step 1506, step 1510 or step 1514, the process proceeds to the next process (process of step 1550). As described above, in this example, the remaining time reduction number (the remaining symbol variation number in which the time shortening game state ends depending on the symbol variation end number after the end of the special game) is transmitted to the sub-control board S. Has been done.

Next, FIG. 65 is a flowchart of the special game operating condition determination process according to the subroutine of step 1550 in FIG. 57. First, in step 1552, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the condition device operation flag is on. In the case of Yes in step 1552, in step 1554, the CPUMC of the main control board M turns off the specific game flag (main game probability change flag, main game time saving flag, auxiliary game time saving flag). Next, in step 1558, the CPU MC of the main control board M clears the value of the time reduction counter MP52c. Next, in step 1560, the CPUMC of the main control board M turns on the special game transition permission flag. Next, in step 1562, the CPUMC of the main control board M turns off the condition device operation flag and shifts to the next process (process of step 1600). Even if No in step 1552, the process proceeds to the next process (process in step 1600).

Next, FIG. 66 is a flowchart of the special game control process according to the subroutine of step 1600 in FIG. 57. First, in step 1602, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the special game transition permission flag is on. In the case of Yes in step 1602, in step 1604 and step 1606, the CPUMC of the main control board M turns off the special game transition permission flag and turns on the special game execution flag. Next, in step 1607, the CPUMC of the main control board M sets an initial value (1 in this example) in the round number counter (not shown). Next, in step 1608, the CPUMC of the main control board M sets the command transmission buffer MT10 for transmitting the information (special game start display instruction command) to the effect that the special game is started to the sub-main control unit side. (It is transmitted to the sub-main control unit SM side in the control command transmission process in step 1999), and the process proceeds to step 1612.

On the other hand, if No in step 1602, in step 1610, the special game execution means MP33 refers to the special game-related information temporary storage means MB20b, and determines whether or not the special game execution flag is on. Then, in the case of Yes in step 1610, the process proceeds to step 1612. If No in step 1610, the special game executing means MP33 determines that the permission for the special game has not been obtained, and proceeds to the next process (process in step 1997).

Next, in step 1612, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines whether or not the round continuation flag is off, in other words, whether or not it is just before the start of each round. In the case of Yes in step 1612, that is, immediately before the start of each round, first, the set opening pattern (for example, an opening pattern that keeps opening, a pattern that opens and closes) is set in step 1614. Next, in step 1616, the CPU MC of the main control board M clears the counter value of the winning ball counter MP33c to zero. Next, in step 1618, the CPUMC of the main control board M turns on the round continuation flag. Next, in step 1620, the CPUMC of the main control board M drives the first large winning opening electric accessory C11d (or the second large winning opening electric accessory C21d) of the first large winning opening C10 to make the first large winning opening. The winning opening C10 (or the second large winning opening C20) is opened, the special game timer MP34t (particularly the opening time timer) is set to a predetermined time (for example, 30 seconds) to start, and the process proceeds to step 1622. On the other hand, if No in step 1612, that is, if the big winning opening is open, the process proceeds to step 1622 without performing the processes of steps 1614 to 1620.

Next, in step 1622, the CPUMC of the main control board M transmits a game state command (for example, the current number of rounds, the number of winning balls, etc.) related to the current special game to the sub-main control unit SM side. It is set in the command transmission buffer MT10 (transmitted to the sub-main control unit SM side in the control command transmission process in step 1999). Next, in step 1624, the CPUMC of the main control board M refers to the counter value of the winning ball counter MP33c, and in the round, a predetermined number (for example, 10) is applied to the first winning opening C10 (or the second winning opening C20). It is determined whether or not there is a winning ball (ball). If Yes in step 1624, the process proceeds to step 1628. On the other hand, if No in step 1624, in step 1626, the CPUMC of the main control board M refers to the special game timer MP34t (particularly the opening time timer) and determines the predetermined time (for example, 30 seconds) related to the opening of the large winning opening. Determines whether or not has passed. In the case of Yes in step 1626, the process proceeds to step 1628. If No in step 1626, the process proceeds to the next process (process in step 1997).

Next, in step 1628, the CPUMC of the main control board M is the first large winning opening electric accessory C11d of the first large winning opening C10 (or the second large winning opening electric accessory C21d of the second large winning opening C20). 1st big winning opening C10 (or 2nd big winning opening C20) is closed. Next, in step 1630, the CPU MC of the main control board M resets the special game timer MP34t (particularly the open time timer). Next, in step 1632, the CPUMC of the main control board M turns off the round continuation flag. Next, in step 1633, the CPUMC of the main control board M adds 1 to the counter value of the round number counter (not shown). Next, in step 1634, it is determined whether or not the final round has ended (for example, whether or not the counter value of the round number counter (not shown) exceeds the maximum number of rounds). In the case of Yes in step 1634, in step 1636, the CPUMC of the main control board M turns off the special game execution flag. Next, in step 1638, the CPUMC of the main control board M sends information to the effect that the special game is ended (special game end display instruction command) to the command transmission buffer MT10 for transmitting to the sub-main control unit SM side. Set (transmitted to the sub-main control unit SM side in the control command transmission process in step 1999). Then, in step 1650, the game state determination process after the end of the special game, which will be described later, is executed, and the process proceeds to the next process (process in step 1997). Even if No in step 1634, the process proceeds to the next process (process in step 1997).

Next, FIG. 67 is a flowchart of the game state determination process after the end of the special game, which relates to the subroutine of step 1650 in FIG. First, in step 1652, the CPUMC of the main control board M determines that the stop symbol of the main game symbol is a probabilistic jackpot symbol (a jackpot symbol that shifts to the probability variation game state after the end of the special game, and in this example, " 5A, 7A, 5B, 7B ") is determined. In the case of Yes in step 1652, in step 1654, the CPUMC of the main control board M turns on the main game probability change flag and proceeds to step 1656. On the other hand, if No in step 1652 (in this example, the non-probability variable jackpot symbol, which is the jackpot symbol that shifts to the non-probability variable gaming state after the end of the special game, is the stop symbol, in this example, "4A". (In the case of "4B"), the process proceeds to step 1656. Next, in step 1656, the CPU MC of the main control board M sets a predetermined number of times (100 in this example) in the time reduction counter MP52c. Next, in step 1658, the CPUMC of the main control board M turns on the main game time reduction flag. Next, in step 1660, the CPUMC of the main control board M turns on the auxiliary game time reduction flag, and proceeds to the next process (process of step 1997).

Next, the control process executed on the sub-main control unit SM side will be described with reference to FIGS. 68 to 72. First, FIG. 68 is a main flowchart of the sub-control board S side (particularly, the sub-main control unit SM side) in the pachinko gaming machine according to the second embodiment. Here, the process of FIG. 3D is a process on the sub-main control unit SM side that is executed after a reset such as when the power is turned on to the game machine. That is, when the power is turned on to the game machine, in step 2002, the CPUSC of the sub-main control unit SM executes the initial processing based on the information received from the main side (main control board M side) (for example, RAM clear). When information is received-> When the RAM on the sub-control board S side is initialized, when various information commands are received-> The effect-related information at the time of power failure is reset to the RAM on the sub-control board S side). After that, the process shifts to the loop processing in which the iterative processing routine (f) of the sub-main control unit SM is repeatedly executed. Here, when (f) is executed, first, in step 2400, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S executes the hold information management process described later, as shown in the process of FIG. Next, in step 2700, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S executes a decorative symbol display content determination process, which will be described later. Next, in step 2800, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S executes the decorative symbol display control process described later. Next, in step 2900, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S executes the special game-related display control process described later. Next, in step 2950, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S executes the frame decoration lamp control process described later. Next, in step 2999, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S executes the display command transmission control process (transmits the command set by these series of subroutines to the sub-sub control unit SS side), and ends this iterative processing routine. To do.

As described above, the CPUSC of the sub-main control unit SM adopts a form in which the sub-main side routines (S2400 to S2999) are looped after being reset. Further, the process of FIG. 3E is an interrupt process of the sub-main control unit SM, and the signal from the STB signal line on the main control board M described above is one terminal of the CPU of the sub-main control unit SM (in this example). , NMI terminal), this is the processing flow (e). That is, when an NMI interrupt occurs in the sub-main control unit SM (when the STB signal line is turned on), in step 2004, the CPU SC of the sub-control board S is a command input port from the main control board M side (described above). Check the input port of the data signal line. Then, in step 2006, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S temporarily stores the command transmitted from the main control board M side in the RAM area on the sub-main control unit SM side based on the confirmation result, and immediately before the main interrupt process. Returns to the processing that was being executed in.

Next, FIG. 69 is a flowchart of the pending information management process according to the subroutine of step 2400 in FIG. 68. First, in step 2402, whether or not the CPUSC of the sub-control board S has received a command related to the occurrence of a new hold (hold information related to the first main game symbol or the second main game symbol) from the main control board M side. To judge. In the case of Yes in step 2402, in step 2404, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S is set to the drawing hold counter value (in this example, the maximum number is 4 for the first main game and the maximum number is 4 for the second main game). Add "1". Next, in step 2406, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S temporarily stores the hold information (random value, etc.) transmitted from the main control board M side in the RAM area of the sub-control board S, and proceeds to step 2418. ..

On the other hand, if No in step 2402, in step 2410, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the symbol variation display start instruction command has been received from the main control board M side. In the case of Yes in step 2410, in step 2412, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S subtracts “1” from the drawing hold counter value. Next, in step 2414, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S deletes the hold information (random value, etc.) related to the symbol variation from the RAM area of the sub-control board S, and shifts the remaining hold information. Next, in step 2416, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S turns on the symbol content determination permission flag, and proceeds to step 2418. In addition, even if No in step 2410, the process proceeds to step 2418.

Next, in step 2418, the CPUMC of the main control board M lights and displays the same number of hold display lamps (hold display images) as the drawing hold counter value on the effect display device SG, and the next process (step 2700). Process).

Next, FIG. 70 is a flowchart of the decorative symbol display content determination process according to the subroutine of step 2700 in FIG. 68. First, in step 2702, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the symbol content determination permission flag is on. If Yes in step 2702, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S turns off the symbol content determination permission flag in step 2704. Next, in step 2706, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S is decorated with reference to the temporarily stored symbol information (stop symbol / variation mode related to the main game symbol) and the lottery table for determining the content of the map variation. Stop symbol of the symbol {For example, if the stop symbol related to the main game symbol is a big hit symbol, doublet such as "7, 7, 7", if it is a lost symbol, "1, 3, 5" , Etc.} and the variation mode are determined and temporarily stored in the RAM area of the sub-control board S.

Next, in step 2712, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S turns on the symbol content determination flag and shifts to the next process (process of step 2800). Even if No in step 2702, the process proceeds to the next process (process in step 2800).

Next, FIG. 71 is a flowchart of the decorative symbol display control process according to the subroutine of step 2800 in FIG. 68. First, in step 2802, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the symbol content determination flag is on. If Yes in step 2802, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S turns off the symbol content determination flag in step 2804. Next, in step 2806, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S turns on the symbol changing flag. Next, in step 2809, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S starts the drawing fluctuation time management timer SM21t, and proceeds to step 2810. Even if No in step 2802, the process proceeds to step 2810.

Next, in step 2810, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the symbol changing flag is on. In the case of Yes in step 2810, in step 2811, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S confirms the timer value of the drawing fluctuation time management timer SM21t. Next, in step 2812, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S has reached the variation start timing of the decorative symbol based on the map variation time management timer SM21t and the variation mode temporarily stored in the RAM area of the sub-control board S. Judge whether or not. In the case of Yes in step 2812, in step 2814, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S sets a command for displaying the variation of the decorative symbol on the effect display device SG (sub-sub control in the display command transmission control process in step 2999). It is transmitted to the unit SS side), and the process proceeds to step 2832.

On the other hand, if No in step 2812, in step 2816, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S has a decorative symbol based on the drawing variation time management timer SM21t and the variation mode temporarily stored in the RAM area of the sub-control board S. It is determined whether or not the stop display timing (temporary stop display timing) has been reached. In the case of Yes in step 2816, in step 2818, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S sets a command to display the stop display (temporary stop display) of the decorative symbol on the effect display device SG (display command transmission control in step 2999). In the process, it is transmitted to the sub-sub control unit SS side), and the process proceeds to step 2832.

On the other hand, if No in step 2816, in step 2824, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S has a preview image or a notice image based on the variation mode temporarily stored in the RAM area of the sub-control board S and the recording variation time management timer SM21t. It is determined whether or not the display timing of the reach image has been reached. In the case of Yes in step 2824, in step 2826, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S sets a command for displaying the image display related to the notice image and the reach image on the effect display device SG (in the display command transmission control process of step 2999). Then, it is transmitted to the sub-sub control unit SS side), and the process proceeds to step 2832. Even if No in step 2824, the process proceeds to step 2832.

Next, in step 2832, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the main game symbol is stopped and displayed (for example, receives information from the main control board M side that the main game symbol is stopped and displayed). (Determine whether or not it was done). In the case of Yes in step 2832, in step 2834, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S sets a stop display command (confirmation display command) for the decorative symbol on the effect display device SG (sub-sub in the display command transmission control process in step 2999). It is transmitted to the control unit SS side). Next, in step 2836, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S stops and resets (zero clears) the drawing fluctuation time management timer SM21t. Next, in step 2838, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S turns off the symbol changing flag and shifts to the next process (process of step 2900). Even if No in step 2810 or step 2832, the process proceeds to the next process (process in step 2900).

Next, FIG. 72 is a flowchart of the special game-related display control process according to the subroutine of step 2900 in FIG. 68. First, in step 2902, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the special game in-game flag is off. In the case of Yes in step 2902, in step 2904, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the special game start display instruction command has been received from the main control board M side. If Yes in step 2904, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S turns on the special gaming flag in step 2912. Next, in step 2914, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S performs a jackpot start display on the effect display device SG (displays appropriately based on the type of jackpot), and proceeds to step 2920. Even if No in step 2902, the process proceeds to step 2920.

Next, in step 2920, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S sequentially displays the number of rounds and the number of winnings on the effect display device SG based on the game information sequentially transmitted from the main control board M side (gamability). (It may be executed as needed based on the type of jackpot, etc.) Set the command. Next, in step 2926, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not a special game end display instruction command has been received from the main control board M side. In the case of Yes in step 2926, in step 2928, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S displays the jackpot end on the effect display device SG (displays appropriately based on the type of jackpot). Next, in step 2930, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S turns off the special game in-game flag and shifts to the next process (process of step 2999). Even if No in step 2904 or step 2926, the process proceeds to the next process (process in step 2999).

Next, FIG. 73 is a flowchart of the frame decoration lamp control process according to the subroutine of step 2950 of FIG. First, in step 2952, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the lighting pattern set timing of the frame decoration lamp 5300 has been reached. The lighting pattern set timing of the frame decoration lamp 5300 includes, for example, the start timing of symbol fluctuation, the execution timing of various random number lottery, the initial processing execution timing after the power of the pachinko gaming machine is turned on, and the game not progressing for a predetermined period. Standby state transition timing to shift when determined (when the standby state is reached, the standby demo effect is executed by the effect display device SG), a predetermined ball entry port (for example, the first main game start port A10). It is the timing of entering the ball, etc. In the case of Yes in step 2952, in step 2954, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S sets the lighting pattern of the frame decoration lamp 5300, and proceeds to step 2956. Even if No in step 2952, the process proceeds to step 2956.

Next, in step 2956, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S determines whether or not the control timing (timing of lighting, extinguishing, etc.) of the frame decoration lamp 5300 has been reached. In the case of Yes in step 2956, in step 2958, the CPUSC of the sub-control board S executes the control (lighting, blinking, extinguishing, etc.) of the frame decoration lamp 5300, and proceeds to the next process (process of step 2999). .. Even if No in step 2965, the process proceeds to the next process (process in step 2999).

As described above, when the frame ground circuit pattern 5100 is not conventionally formed, a strong electromagnetic wave is emitted near the lamp substrate 5000, and a high voltage signal is applied to the frame decoration lamp 5300 of the lamp substrate 5000. Is concerned with the possibility that a high voltage signal is supplied to a control board other than the lamp board 5000 (for example, the main control board M and the sub control board S) via the frame decoration lamp 5300 and affects the other control boards. As described above, by forming the frame ground circuit pattern 5100 on the lamp substrate 5000 and electrically connecting it to the frame ground line FGL via the frame ground circuit pattern connection connector FGC, in the vicinity of the frame decoration lamp 5300. Even when an electromagnetic wave is emitted, the high voltage signal flows through the frame ground line FGL via the frame ground circuit pattern 5100. When the frame ground line FGL is grounded (grounded) to the outside of the housing of the game machine, the high voltage signal is grounded to the outside of the housing of the game machine. In this way, even when an electromagnetic wave is emitted near the frame decoration lamp 5300, it is possible to prevent the inflow to other control boards (for example, the main control board M and the sub control board S).

Further, the lamp substrate 5000 is provided with not only a plurality of light emitting elements (plurality of LEDs) and a driver DR for a frame decoration lamp, but also another control IC, a circuit pattern of another control IC, and the like. Is also good. In this case, it is preferable that the frame ground circuit pattern 5100 is formed on the outer circumference of the frame ground circuit pattern 5100 rather than the circuit patterns of other control ICs or other control ICs. The frame ground circuit pattern 5100 is preferably formed electrically independently of other control ICs other than the frame ground circuit pattern 5100, circuit patterns of other control ICs, and the like.

By arranging in this way, even if the high voltage signal flows into the lamp substrate 5000 by the player touching the frame decorative portion VC (for example, the decorative cover members RVC 10 and 20), the high voltage signal is generated. It flows through the frame ground circuit pattern 5100 and does not affect other control ICs or other circuit patterns. In this case, the other control ICs, the circuit patterns of the other control ICs, and the like are GND (grounded) inside the housing of the game machine.

By the way, in this example, since the circuit pattern for frame ground is formed over the outer circumference of the lamp board 5000, the wiring length thereof becomes relatively long, and in some cases, this circuit pattern plays the role of an antenna, which is more than necessary. There is a risk that noise will be mixed into the game machine. Therefore, it is preferable that the wiring length of the frame ground circuit pattern 5100 is a wiring length that is not easily affected by the wavelength (λ) of the 144 MHz band and / or the wavelength (λ) of the 2.45 GHz band among the frequency bands. More specifically, it is preferable to set the wiring length so as not to be a fractional value (λ / 2, λ / 4, λ / 8) of the wavelength (λ) in the 144 MHz band and / or the wavelength (λ) in the 2.45 GHz band. ..

For example, taking the 2.45 GHz band as an example, it can be calculated by wavelength (λ) = speed of light c (m / s) / frequency (f). If c = 299,792,458 and f = 2,45,000,000 (Hz), then the wavelength (λ) = 122.36 (mm). In this case, the wiring length when 1 / 2λ is 61.18 (mm), the wiring length when 1 / 4λ is 30.59, and the wiring length when 1 / 8λ is 15.30. Therefore, it is preferable that the wiring length of the frame ground circuit pattern 5100 does not become these wiring lengths.

When the control ICs arranged on the lamp board 5000 and the circuit patterns of the control ICs are formed not only on one side but also on both sides, the frame grounds are opposed to each other via the resin base material of the lamp board 5000 described above. The circuit patterns 5100 may be formed respectively.

With the above configuration, according to the pachinko gaming machine according to the second embodiment, the frame decoration lamp 5300 is caused by the player touching the frame decoration portion VC (for example, the decoration cover members RVC10, 20). And even when an electromagnetic wave is emitted near the lamp substrate 5000, the high voltage signal flows through the frame ground line FGL via the frame ground circuit pattern 5100. Therefore, when the frame ground line FGL is grounded to the outside of the housing, a high voltage signal can be sent to the outside of the housing of the game machine. Further, when the frame ground line FGL is not grounded to the outside of the housing, the high voltage signal is attenuated by the noise countermeasure protector 6200. In this way, even when an electromagnetic wave is emitted near the frame decoration lamp 5300 and the lamp board 5000 by the player touching the decorative cover members RVC 10 and 20, the main control board M and the sub control board M and the sub control board It is possible to prevent the inflow to S and the like, and it is possible to prevent the content of the game of the main control board M and the content of the effect of the sub control board S from being affected.

As described above, in the gaming machines such as the pachinko gaming machine and the rotating cylinder type gaming machine P, various decorative cover members (so-called lenses, etc.) are arranged so as to cover the lamp substrate in order to enhance the effect of the effect. Sometimes. By covering the lamp substrate with such a decorative cover member, the lamp substrate can be structurally easily protected. However, the decorative cover member including the decorative cover member, which is expected to have an effect of effect, has various shapes, patterns, and colors. Therefore, depending on the form of the decorative cover member, the distance from the lamp substrate may have to be shortened. For example, a decorative cover member DC in which a plurality of projecting bodies projecting toward the player are arranged side by side is also assumed. In such a decorative cover member DC, the plurality of projecting bodies are arranged apart from each other, and a gap is formed between the adjacent projecting bodies. The region where the protrusion is formed can secure a distance from the lamp substrate. On the other hand, since the gap region in which the gap is formed has a structure in which it is difficult to secure a distance from the lamp substrate, the player can use the gap region to hold the player's hand or the like on the lamp substrate. It becomes possible to approach. Therefore, when a strong electromagnetic wave is emitted at a position close to the lamp board such as a gap region, the emitted electromagnetic wave supplies a high voltage signal to the main control board M, the sub control board S, and the like via the lamp board. This may affect the main control board M, the sub control board S, and the like. Further, not only the lamp board but also the board placed near the player is similarly susceptible to the influence of electromagnetic waves from the outside. Therefore, it is preferable to provide a means for making the substrate arranged near the player less susceptible to the influence of electromagnetic waves emitted from the outside of the game machine. Even in such a case, by providing the frame ground circuit pattern on the layer of the lamp board as in this example, the lamp board is configured to be less susceptible to the influence of electromagnetic waves emitted from the outside of the game machine. can do.
